A batch is incorrectly marked as a birth index but is actually a death index. Who do I contact to correct this error?

    If you are reviewing the batch can you just change the Record Type? That way you wouldn't need to report it. If you cannot change it then yes it should be reported to the Indexing Project Administrators - I think that means moving your post to the Indexing category: https://community.familysearch.org/en/categories/indexing-support

    Hello,

    I've moved your question to the Indexing category. Would you please share your batch information so that those more knowledgeable than I can help you?

    @Cendna, were you able to have someone look at your batch and help you? If not and you still have the batch, please share the batch number we really need to look at it to see if it needs to go to another department. If you don't have the batch anymore, please give us the name of the project. Thank you for all that you are doing.
