This link below is supposed to go through to the christenings in Constantine in Cornwall, UK. Instead it goes through to the burials. The source is incorrect.

For example Eliza Sanders can never be in this record, even for burial because she died in Australia.

`Dear Familysearch
I am hoping you can address this to the right department for correction.

Please see below.
This link that should be for births/baptisms in Constantine, Cornwall, UK is for actually for burials.
That leads me to suspect that each person on this approx 300 page folder is linked incorrectly. The link to the web page is attached above the screenshot which details the digital folder number.
Is there any way this can be corrected.
Best regards, Caitlin

    Things appear to be cross-threaded here - the screenshot shows an index for a baptism and cites Digital Folder 4138227. However, that DGS is, according to the catalog, an unindexed burial.

    Logically, the 1839 baptism should be on DGS 4007098 (though there is another film that's not been digitised according to the icon). However, I can't find that baptism in the index for Constantine (which is a parish in Cornwall and nothing to do with a Johanna Constantine - sorry, that's in my head at the moment).

    @caitlinfennell The correct image is found on DGS 4007098 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DYVS-RJ1?view=explore&groupId=M94S-RX3&lang=en

    This error occurs frequently in Legacy Collections created from old extractions. FamilySearch is working to link them to images, but errors can happen. I will report this for correction and thanks for bringing it to our attention.
