    Maybe you could copy and paste the URL address or at least provide a date. There are 10 marriage records for various individuals named Gudjon Einarsson dating from 1850 to 1910.

    There are several errors in the transcription of Gudjon Einarsson's (LVWG-TNG) marriage record. Digital Folder No.: 005471825; Image No.: 00054; First the Parent Name should read Father's Name or Grooms Father's Name which we know by Scandanavian naming conventions is Einar Stefansson and the Second Parents name should read Mother's Name or Grooms Mother's name. The transcription names for the spouse's parents are actually the names of the witnesses and their last names you are showing Framnes is actually the name of the town they reside in which is a few miles from the town where the marriage took place. Elin's parents should Andre Bjarnsson and Gudrun Johannesdottir. Thank you for making the corrections

    @kenscott2 ( & @Melissa S Himes )

    FYI

    Just in passing ...

    I am sorry, I have been a little busy/preoccupied, with personal matters today ....

    I just took a quick 'look' ...

    Regarding ...

    Gudjon EINARSSON ( LVWG-TNG )

    'Yes' ...

    It appears, that in the actual "Indexing", of the "Brides" Parents, there WAS a "Transcription Error" ...

    Unfortunately ...

    Currently; as, far as I am aware, such an "Indexing" Error, CANNOT, be "Corrected" ...

    One, must just make, the appropriate "Notation"; about, the "Error"; when, attaching the "Source" ...

    Good Luck.

    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; and, another avenue to pursue.

    Brett
