How may I report an inaccurately named source in Research Help?

John Randle Fletcher

19 March 1835 – 1893  • MQF1-684.

In Research Help the source England, Northamptonshire, Non-conformist Records, 1840-1894 actually contains christening records for Radcliffe, Lancashire, not for Northamptonshire at all.

John Randle Fletcher's christening in 1835 appears, with the correct name of his parents, and occupation of his father, alongside other entries of christenings in Radcliffe.

    This collection actually contains records from both places and many more. At this time it can not be edited but may be in the future. You can still attach the record. and then explain in the reason statement box the discrepancy in the location. We are sorry for the confusion.

    You may also like to join the Community Group for England where you will find more focused help and assistance from others doing similar research.

    Hope this Community Group is helpful with your future research.

    I have noticed the same thing! Although in my case it's Yorkshire sources coming up as Northamptonshire. I don't want to link these sources because I have worked so hard to keep families together based on location. Please update these sources to be accurate. Thank you!
