Sheet Improperly Indexed
https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/linker?pal=/ark:/61903/1:1:6XPQ-8WPD&id=K237-LN1
This sheet doesn't properly distinguish between the heads of families. As a result, Source Linker attempts to find relationships where the only connection is one of neighbors. How can this be resolved? I have run across this issue on many other 1950 Census documents.

The 1950 US Census was originally indexed by computer handwriting recognition. Many - most - relationships had to be corrected/connected by human review.
You can make the edits/connections by selecting the pencil next to Relationships.

@AlainaCallahan I went ahead and separated out the Erwin Taylor family, but these articles might be helpful for you to learn the process:
