The six births on left side page took place in Drummond twp.
The six birth on right side page took place in Lanark twp.
All twelve have been transcribed as taking place Drummond twp.
How can this be corrected?

@fbax fbax Right now, it is only possible to change names on records that have been indexed correctly. Soon dates and places will be available. The following link is information on names, but it will give you a general idea what can come dates and places: https://www.familysearch.org/blog/en/edit-names-indexed-records/ In the meantime, when you are looking at a record, and attaching it to your tree, just type in the "notes" box what the error is and people will be able to interpret it.

The problem with this "solution" is that most people will simply attach the source without looking at the image; so the index will probably NOT get fixed.

The next image (541) is also incorrect.

I usually send feedback on that page denoting the errors.

Is this something that can be taken care of @FamilySearch Places ?
