How do I submit a change for an indexing error in the 1950 Census

Someone erroneously indexed the name "Paul H. Gravelle" as "Pearl H. Gravelle." A friend wants to know if it's possible to submit suggested changes for obvious errors in the FamilySearch version of the 1950 Census.

Thanks!

    @J. Britt Franklin, thank you for your question on how to change an indexing error in the 1950 census. If I understand correctly, the person who was reviewing the AI index mistakenly put "Paul" instead of "Pearl". As soon as the state is completed and published, you or the person researching will have the ability edit the name.

    We appreciate your question and appreciate all that you are doing in the 1950 census to make it searchable!!
