Could someone look at this?

I keep getting a problem in source tagging, and then an error on Roger Parker Clapp, L4D9-SQN, relative to census listings.
The message under TAGGING reads: "This person has multiple sources attached from the same census year and is most likely incorrect."Massachusetts, State Census, 1865"

So I went through the tags, and for residences and travel, found one source tagged with the above mentioned tag. I removed the tag to see if that fixed it, and it did not.

Then I went through the sources for his name and found the census was applied twice, so I removed one of the tags, and then double check to see if the error went away. It did not.

I went through the tagged sources for his birth and found the census there twice, removed on, refreshed and the warning was still there.

I cannot dismiss the source tag error message, either.

So if anyone could see what I missed, or take note of not being able to dismiss the warning, it would be appreciated.

There are two 1865 Mass censuses attached to Robert P Clapp, one from Image 304 and one from Image 305, of the same location.

It appears - without digging too deeply - that the page was imaged twice, as both start with dwelling 163 (line 1 on the left). And, then both pages were indexed, making 2 of the same for Robert and his family.

I also tried dismissing with that explanation, with the same error message.

@Rhonda Budvarson could you bump this problem of not being able to dismiss with an explanation, up the line, please? Thanks.

Thanks Ani!

Ani - his wife, Mary Lizzie Saunders (MH73-T6P) grew up in another part of Massachusetts, and the same thing happened on her profile. Two census sets, and the same error message.

@Rhonda Budvarson Is this a thing with that census, or the way the other user connected the link?

If there are 2 versions of the same census attached to a single person, the algorithm will call that out as a possible error.
There was recently an issue with the two enumerations of the 1870, but that seems to have been cleared up. This is different.

Thank you we will look at this :)
