incorrect ordinance data

There are a few individuals on our tree who have incorrect ordinance data. For example, Kirsten Jorgensdatter #L7JJ-254 shows baptism and confirmation dates dates of Nov 1948 and yet she was an early convert in Denmark - the 1855 census (which is linked as a source to her data on Family Tree) shows her religion as "Mormon", she came to Utah prior to her marriage in 1859. Family Tree shows her initiatory and endowment dates as 17 May 1862, and her sealing to spouse as 1859. Is there a way to find her correct baptism date - perhaps with the Scandinavian mission records?

Kirsten's sister, Dorthe Jorgensdatter #KWJD-3S2 also has incorrect baptism and confirmation dates. Her sealing to spouse is probably the only correct date - which is at the Endowment House in 1869. She was also baptized in Denmark, but her ordinance data shows 1948 and 1949 dates. (Her husband's ordinances seem accurate - 2nd husband, Jorgen Nielsen #KWJL-MMH)) Her two daughters who were baptized in Denmark in 1866 have accurate ordinance data. But her son, Erik Larsen #KWNV-LT8 (of her first marriage) shows 2004 for baptism and confirmation. Erik was also baptized in Denmark and emigrated in 1866. His other ordinance show accurate 1868 dates - except I wonder about the sealing to parent date of 1973.

Another sister, Ane Marie Jorgensdatter #KWJD-3SD, who was baptized in Denmark prior to emigration has 1930 baptism and confirmation, yet initiatory and endowment is showing as 1868. Her sealing dates seem to be accurate. I have 28 April 1853 as her baptism date (This is same day her husband and a nephew were baptized)

I am hoping you can fix these dates, or advise me of what to do...
