There is a place name indexing issue with the 1915 New Jersey State Census, Middlesex County, for South River. South River Borough is listed correctly when using the Browse option for the records (it is split into two Districts). It is also listed correctly at the top of each census page.

However, when searching for individual people, the event place has incorrectly been indexed as Sayreville, South Amboy Township, Middlesex, New Jersey, United States.

Searching for a person in South River brings up nothing. Everyone has been indexed as living in the wrong town.

South River Borough, 1 District - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L9QR-9T2P?wc=4DTG-4VV%3A1068532402%2C1068534015&cc=2061544

South River Borough, 2 District - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-89QR-9RCR?wc=4DTG-4VD%3A1068532402%2C1068532901&cc=2061544

(I am posting this here because the Feedback button said, “An error has prevented the requested action. Please visit the FamilySearch Community for help or to report an issue.”)

Thank you.
