Household Members Missing from Indexed Record

Stacy Groff-Alfrey

See "United States Census, 1880," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MNQT-17M : 19 February 2021), John Fletcher Clough, Dixons, Queen Anne's, Maryland, United States; citing enumeration district ED 57, sheet 311D, NARA microfilm publication T9 (Washington, D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.), FHL microfilm 1,254,514.

There are four individuals above John Fletcher who also belong in the household.

How can this get corrected?
