How do I correct my ancestor's name on her discovery page.

My ancestor's name is wrong on her discovery page--everywhere on her discovery page.

If I edit and correct her name on her "Details" page or tab, will that correct her name everywhere on her discovery page?

    @danrb I learned - because you asked - the following on the 'about discovery pages'>learn more - "The discovery pages refresh every couple of weeks." So you are correct to edit in the Details page and the DIscovery page will update 'later'. This is apparently as designed - currently.

    I fixed her name on her "Detail" page or tab.

    But that did not fix her name on her "Discovery Page."

    How can I get that fixed?

    The discovery pages refresh every couple of weeks. If you have fixed the person's detail page to be correct, those corrections will flow to the discovery page when they refresh. Give it 1-2 weeks and check back.
