In the Birmensdorf online images, Film #008014302, images 4 through 52 are all indexed correctly.

The father's name is underlined and the mother is not listed. Every entry ignores the father and puts the witnesses as mother and father. Anyone looking for an ancestor during this time using indexing will not find them. I am worried that many people who do not even exist will have their work done and be sealed to families in which they do not belong.

Look at the first entry. The father is Oswald Lupffer and the son is Gorg. Mothers were not listed in this parish during the early years, The child is shown as Gorg Fry. The witnesses are listed as his parents. If you go to later pages, such as image 55, you can see they labeled columns.

I cannot get the tags to work correctly.
