1900 US Census Error- Ross A Adams

I found gross error and no way to fix it. I cannot find anywhere to get a message to the people over indexing. I am not approved to be in the group, my explanation is too long and is rejected. Exactly how to I address the issue below and to whom ? Please have someone fix the problem.

I have found a major indexing problem but don't know where to address it. It is not editable from the regular page. I have attached the 1900 U.S. Census for Somerset, Somerset, Pennsylvania to Ross A Adams (LZVB-21C). The problem is that the Family Search record has been indexed listing 10 Ross A Adams as members of the household.  The link to the source page with the problem is https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M348-HFL

The original source lists his wife and children. 

Emma Adams   32 Wife

Mabel E Adams   9 Daughter

Nettie G Adams   8 Daughter

Olive B Adams    6 Daughter

Marion A Adams 4 Daughter

Thank you. Shirley Rogers

    It's not an indexing error per se. That is, the problem was not created during the indexing process. A large portion of index for the 1900 census became corrupted several months ago.

    @N Tychonievich could you please escalate this one. Thanks.

    It appears that each woman now has her own record link.
