Included with the blessing is the person’s complete name, birth date, birthplace, and parents’ names.

Some early Saints had more than one blessing.                                                                                                                                                               The index to Patriarchal Blessings, 1833-1963 can be found on films #392631-392696.  This alphabetical list gives the birth date, patriarchal blessing date, and the volume and page number where the blessing is recorded.  There is also an index to Patriarchal Blessings on fiche #6334933.  This index gives the name of the person receiving the blessing, birth date, date of the blessing, and volume and page number of the original blessing and which is less information than the film index.
