web address vs. source citation
this concerns the 1950 US Census Bainbridge Township, Dubois, Indiana, United States.
The web address shows: Joseph Herlzog, "United States 1950 Census" • FamilySearch
the source citation shows: "United States 1950 Census", database, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6XLH-NN78 : Sun Sep 24 12:57:44 UTC 2023), Entry for Theresa A Hulzey and Harold J Fleck, 14 April 1950.
the 2 do not match up.
Joseph and Theresa HERZOG or HERTZOG have 6 children:
- Alberta, born Jun 1929
- Henry J., born Jun 1931
- Roman, born Feb 1934
- Mary Ann, born Feb 1939
- Agnes M., born Mar 1943
- Theresia A., born May 1948
None of the web addresses matches the Source citation.
Is there a way to fix this?

You don't have to do anything. The website gives you the information.

Each person in the household has a separate URL. Joseph is https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6XLH-NN7W. Theresa is https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6XLH-NN74.
If you use the Source Linker, it will line each person in the household up and allow you to connect the specific URL to each person.

Thanks!
This will require a day at home alone (peace and quiet), so I get the ID numbers right.

There is clearly an error in the auto-generated citation: it gives the URL and names for a different entry than what you're actually trying to cite. Luckily, Source Linker doesn't use that auto-citation -- and you don't need to, either. (If those auto-citations were to disappear entirely one day, I think it'd take me several weeks to notice.)
