Everyone pre-existed.
"In the first stage, man was an eternally existent being termed an intelligence. In that sphere of existence each individual was naturally conscious...when we completed our work in that realm and were permitted to go forward in the eternal process of progression...The next realm where man dwelt was the spirit world." The Gospel Through the Ages, Milton Hunter, Pg. 127
