    Unfinished attachments can be a challenge, at times. However when someone is listed in the obituary , that is not a family member, as in this case, the designation of REV, might be the person who conducted the funeral, then that unfinished attachment banner may be dismissed.

    (You mean these are first cousins, both named Lochrane, but one's a girl and the other's a boy? If so, yikes.)

    I don't offhand know whether the gender fields on GenealogyBank indexes are correctable or not, but they usually aren't. My advice for uncorrectable indexes is to not worry about it -- after all, the index has already served its purpose: you found the record(s).
