Hi everyone, my sister's record (UK birth) on familysearch has an incorrect, short version of her surname. The 'edit' button is greyed out so I was wondering how I can have this corrected?

Thanks

    Many record indexes cannot - yet - be edited. This is especially true if there is no image of the record on FamilySearch. If there is no image, there is no way to be sure if the record itself has the error or if the error is from the indexing project.
