So we're supposed to leave mistakes, abbreviations, and mis-spellings as they are... I had a guy whose name was written as A4hman Chas., and I couldn't type in a "4" into the entry box.

    Interesting. I would put a ? In place of the 4. I can’t think of a more “correct” thing to do.

    There are several mispellings in my family record. how can you make a note of other names?

    ex- name apprears as LEIS not correct. Correct is LEIES

    the correct names are attached to pages with misspelled words
