Reporting mismatched film information

to report images responding to correct title.

Here is the URL: https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/584564?availability=Family%20History%20Library - Patents, 1623-1774, 42 vols. ; index, land patents, [to] volumes 1-42

Line below that is incorrect:

Information in FamilySearch - Patents, v. 33 (p. 1-500), 1756-1758 Family History Library United States & Canada 2nd Floor Film 29349  8570219

Film 8570219, when the camera is clicked on, shows Pennsylvaina War of 1812 information instead of Virginia land records.

    @Forrest King,

    Thank you for letting us know about this catalog error. Unfortunately, the catalog is undergoing a major re-work and corrections cannot be made until that is complete.

    Hi there, I have just encountered the same link error, more than 2 years later. I am also looking for information in vol 33 and getting the PA War of 1812 records. Any updates on this re-work of the catalog? Thanks!

    I do not know about any reworking of the catalog. However, I am now living in Salt Lake. I can check to see if they just switched the films. Film 1018559 needs to be read at the library. It is possible that someone just mixed up those two films. If that is the problem, what would you like me to check?

    I forgot that there was a work around only for this film problem. The Virginia Land Office Patents are online. Here is the link.

    The catalog is STILL undergoing a re-work, but there is a way to report an error in the catalog. https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-request-a-correction-to-the-familysearch-catalog
