found the person i was seeking in the search

clicked on person’s name in linked text

& was told the record no longer exists

opened the image by clicking the camera icon

went to ‘index image’ at bottom of page

it repeated his mothers info from the previous line

i used ‘edit’ to try to manually enter the info from the image

it replaced his errant info, but also replaced his mother’s info with his.

this happened another time with a different record,

never could get it solved here but somehow it fixed itself at some point.

the current problem is here, in the household of mary e. morris,

with son ralph r. :

    @t. g. davis

    FYI

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    FYI

    Please be advised, that there is a KNOWN, significant, Problem/Issue, in regard to, "Sources" (plus, the attaching thereof); and, the "1900, Census of the United States of America", that 'FamilySearch' is aware of; and, addressing (ie. Trying to FIX).

    There is NO indication, WHEN such will be FIXED.

    It really is a matter, of being patient; and, just waiting ...

    I know, that this does not help/assist; but, I hope, that this provides you with some, information.

    ah ok, this behaves just as a glitch in the 1920 did earlier.

    maybe they’ll solve it soon

    thanks
