How do I notify Familiy Search of Records that seem to be in the wrong geographic area?
I am searching Berks Co, PA images and finding records for Louisiana, Canada, etc. How do I let Family Search know this?

Please report them here, under Q and A in the Search category. Post the URL of the collection and a brief outline of the errors.
There are many indexing and/or cataloging errors like this, as you'll see if you browse that category. We've been told not to expect correction soon, unfortunately.

@Marcia Sugumele You mentioned that you were searching images, so we assume you mean that you clicked Search and then Images when you found mis-identified record sets? If so, you can use the Feedback button. It is a white button on every page in the Images section--usually on the bottom-right, but can vary based on browser. That way, you report the error directly to the folks who maintain the Explore Historical Images section of the website. The images are uploaded here as soon as they are captured, so errors creep in. But, our experience has been that they respond readily when we notify them of errors.
If that is not where you are seeing the errors, please give us a few more details so we can replicate the error and determine if it is one that we can report.
