    The tax records for Columbiana County, Ohio have index entries for the images with the Event Place incorrectly labeled as Hamilton County

    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DR19-PL?i=16&cc=1473259&cat=236331

    is an example. Click on Image Index to see the problem.

    The problem persists with the "Cite This Record" on the abstract:

    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JM19-C6J

    is an example

    The entire book is for Columbiana County, Ohio but all records and images are incorrectly labeled as Hamilton County.


    Where should I give this feedback?

    @bobjanwolfegenealogy Thank you for including the URL to help us quickly get to the record details page and see how this Ohio Tax Records collection was indexed. As you seem to have noticed, the place is editable, and I see that someone has corrected the entry for William S Reed. Unfortunately, this does not fit the patron of the auto-standardization errors that the engineers are correcting for us. This one is an indexing error. I notice in the citation for the collection that it was indexed by the Ohio Genealogy Society, so it might be worthwhile to get in touch with them to see if they have the ability to make the needed corrections. A web search turns up their website:
