How does one get an incorrect transcription corrected?
I was viewing an Aunts baptism (Elizabeth Ada Bridge 17 May 1908) when I noticed her father first name is incorrect.
the transcription states Arthur, the correct name is Alfred and it is clear that Alfred is written on the image.
The record in question is;-
Digital Folder Number 007568835 Image Number 00125

Hi there dbridge 276!
On correcting Inaccurate transcriptions - these can be corrected IF the Edit button on the record is available.
Unfortunately on this particular record, the Edit is greyed out and an apology is given.
On the record in Family Tree, you are able to make a note in Alfred's vitals that the attached transcription recorded his first name incorrectly.
