    I saw that William Hicks Ball, 1790-1863 is shown as being born in Layfette, Pa…..this is not correct…he was born in Bucks County, Pa.

    @Richard Phillips_9 The word "record" is used to describe many different elements of the FamilySearch site,

    In this case, it seems you may mean the profile of William Hicks Ball, profile LWXS-M4H, showing as born in Fayette, Pennsylvania, United States.
    Any signed-in user of the FamilySearch website can edit the place of birth by clicking on the pencil near that event.
