In doing research yesterday, I found a 1840 Census page that had records missing from the index. IE, they were skipped. I posted this in the Indexing forum (link to the post is below), but so far no one has responded. Where do I bring this to someone's attention to be fixed?

    Counting lines from the image, there are 30 names listed.

    The index on censuses on FamilySearch is sometimes not displayed in the same order as on the image of the census page. The name "Mourning Noe" is indexed. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XHRK-KSS
