[Brigham Young]
In reply to your questions: as you and your wife received your Endowments before being sealed as husband and wife there is no need of the children being sealed to you. As to the [issue of your wife's] New Name[,] when you and your wife get to the Temple and to the proper place[,] you can get it from your wife, but not till then.
