Mixed up record displays on censuses

I have found a couple of census records where some of the displayed data for a persona (specifically, marriage date/place information) includes data relating to other persona(s) on the same record - here's an example screenshot (from https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6P1M-QWF5?lang=en):

My other example is https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QV9Y-7KM1?lang=en:

    @MandyShaw1 I don't know how this post slipped through the cracks, but I don't remember ever seeing it so sorry for the late reply! At first read I thought it was connected to your previous thread on Corrupted Record Displays, but I see it is different. With this one the specific data—in this case marriage date, is attached to others on the record and cannot be unattached:

    The date can be edited but I cannot find any way to unlink it since it does not show in the indexed data for the others on the record. I have seen this before, mainly in AI indexed records. This index comes from Find My Past, but the error is most likely on our end. I will see what engineering has to say.
