Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, withy your first post.
I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
Just in passing ...
For starters ...
Do not panic ...
That is a "Discovery Page", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch" [.org], of 'FamilySearch'.
Unfortunately ...
'Yes', as you have discovered , the "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch" [.org], about our Ancestors, are riddled with errors; and, lets say (to be kind) somewhat 'misleading'.
As an aside ...
To be honest ...
As long as, the "Details", are CORRECT, for one's Ancestor, in "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch' ...
[ ie. Maria Catharina THOMAS ( KLJ2-HN4 ) ... ]
One should not be too concerned with what one 'sees' on the "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch".
Us 'lowly' User/Patrons, literally, have NO real control whatsoever, of WHAT appears, on the "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch". All we can do is make sure everything is CORRECT and "Standardised"; as, they can be, for our Ancestors, in "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch' - that is it - nothing more, nothing less.
"Ancestors.FamilySearch" is a specific programme, designed and developed by 'FamilySearch', that runs itself, on its own accord, independent of ANY input, by us 'lowly' Users/Patrons.
Please be aware ...
The "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch", are ONLY, simply, to enable (SOME of) the individuals/persons, in "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch', to be "Found" (ie. located), by ANYONE, doing a search on the INTERNET, for such an individuals/persons.
The "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch", are NOT any form of definitive "Resource" for Genealogy/Family History research.
The "Discovery Pages", in "Ancestors.FamilySearch", are simply to bring OTHERS, not aware of; or, already associated with, "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch', TO discover 'FamilySearch'; and, especially, to enable them, to participate in, "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch', if the so desire - nothing more, nothing less.
Just my thoughts.
I know, that this certainly does not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective.
