I would laugh, but it's just not funny.

Philadelphia is often abbreviated as "Phila." The placename standardization algorithm has converted that into Finland for place of birth in the Philadelphia Death Certificates record set. Example: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VKDJ-KLD

    @Áine Ní Donnghaile Thanks. I'll report the error in search results--seems to be correct on record details pages.
