How do I give corrections to the FamilySearch Place Research Tool database programmers?
The FamilySearch Place Research Tool database currently shows only one entry for Kaysville, Davis, Utah, United States, City, 1854 - Today. That entry needs to be corrected to Kaysville, Davis, Utah, United States, City, 1896 - Today (Utah did not become a state until 1896). A second entry needs to be created: Kaysville, Davis, Utah Territory, United States, City, 1854-1896. (The FamilySearch Place Research Tool seems to include a way to "Suggest a New Place," but does not seem to have a Feedback or Correction option. I failed when I tried to use the "Suggest a New Place" function.) Wayne Platt Smith.
