(sorry - not an idea...)

the citation ""Massachusetts Deaths, 1841-1915, 1921-1924", database with images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FXVR-2M5 : 27 October 2020), Malcom Dinsmore Kemp, 1913."

is, as it says, labeled as a listing of deaths. However, the actual image linked from the link above is a record of "Massachusetts Births, 1841-1915 - 004401720"

It's not vitally important but I was confused for a moment - it would be better if it could be fixed!

Thanks for all the resources you offer!

    I ran across the same thing with the Massachusetts death record which the content shows is really a birth record.

    Today I found another similar issue with "Rhode Island Town Deaths Index, 1639-1932" which is really a marriage index. With there was a way to make these corrections to the already indexed records.
