SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MIGRANT DOCUMENTS

DorotheaRowse

Can someone please correct the location of a group of South Australian Migrant documents?

They have recently been made available for searching but under SOUTH AFRICA.

If you would post the url that you are referring to that would be helpful for us to verify your concern.

Also give us your Search Terms so that we can replicate it.

This a problem in FamilySearch Historical Records?

Family History Research in Africa, South Africa — FamilySearch.org

On the South African research page the 1st item on the list of collections is Australia, South Australia, immigrants ship papers, 1849-1940, 38

This has clearly been placed in error on this page which contains purely South African resources.

Thank you for the link. We still were not able to discover exactly what steps you took to get to that page unfortunately. We believe though that it may be a Research Wiki site. If this is the case, you will want to report it as a Wiki problem.

If this answer is not helpful, please comment with the steps that you took to get to the page where the error is and we will research further how to report the incorrect link to Australia, South Australia, Immigrants Ship Papers, 1849-1940 that appears on the page.

Thank you for reporting the error.

The page in question is a page within Records.

You go the the Search/Records https://www.familysearch.org/search/ and then click on the map of Africa. Then from the menu of locations select South Africa. The page is https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/location/1927115?region=South%20Africa

You can tell from the format of the URL that it is NOT a Wiki page

Personally I use these these country pages for most of my Records searching.

Thank you @DorotheaRowse for identifying this error and bringing it to our attention. And, thank you @Brett . for helping us find the collections page error/bug. The Australia, South Australia, Immigrants Ship Papers definitely do not belong on this page. We will submit it for correction.
