@N Tychonievich found another one https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QL6W-N8SV in this case "Alkemade, South-Holland, Netherlands" must be "Roelofarendsveen, South-Holland, Netherlands".

And, the baptism date isn't 01 Jan 1783 but 24 Apr 1783.

    @Lars van Ravenzwaaij This is not one that would be fixed. The date is a straight-up indexing error, rather than a computer error. In collections where you can't fix the indexing error, you just have to note it. Roelofardndsveen is a community within Alkemade, according to what I can find. Given the number of more significant issues that are being worked on, they are unlikely to increase the granularity of the place within the index.

    @N Tychonievich Thanks for the explanation.

    Here the historical places database ist the problem then. In 1783 Roelofsarendsveen was not part of the community of Alkemade. Roelofsarendsveen, Alkemade and some other places are, since 2009, part of the municipality of Kaag en Braassem.

    BTW: The "Event Place (original)" should be Roelofsarendsveen then (as openarch.nl clearly shows). Is this also a indexing problem?
