I think there was a systemic problem when some data was indexed

I have been using the data from "Canada, Ontario, Toronto Trust Cemeteries". I have noticed that some of the people are listed as 0 years when their tombstones show them to be 70 or80. The problem seems to stem from the age being listed with the number of months. e.g. 80 years and 6 months. Here are some names from the Toronto Necropolis Cemetery.

Robert Peters (1891)

Ann Peters (1887)

Thomas Robinson (1887)

    According to the project landing page, "Indexing was a cooperative project with the Toronto Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society." https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/1627831

    Unfortunately that is not a field we can currently edit. Check back intermittently because the ability to edit every field is slowly being rolled out to collections.
