1840 Census for Washington Township Ohio incorrectly Washington, District of Columbia

FLQR

This entry for the 1840 Census for Ohio / Coshocton / Washington Township is incorrectly assigned to Washington, District of Columbia, United States

https://www.familysearch.org/ark%3A/61903/1%3A1%3AXHRF-FTF

The image https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GYBW-9QZ1

shows Washington township on the left border.

I checked another record on the same page, one two images earlier(9), and another on image (5), same problem.

One on image 13 seems correct as Virginia Township, Coshocton, Ohio, United States, but that then redirected as the start of a new group.

Another place name standardization issue.

Yup, the auto-standardization bot strikes (out) yet again.

@N Tychonievich please and thanks.

I wish I didn't have to keep tagging you, but as long as we keep finding these messes, I will.

@FLQR Thank you for reporting the standardization error in the 1840 US Census. I will pass it on to the group that is working on these issues.

@Áine Ní Donnghaile No problem. Keep tagging me. I know how to get them reported and keep a spreadsheet of the ones that have already been reported so that we don't send duplicates. Makes sense for me to take care of them.
