@Christina Sachs Wagner This is a known issue with some of the 1920 census families. Engineers have been alerted and are trying to straighten it out. So, hang in there and hope for an early resolution.

It is a poor transcription. Only the head of household on that page was indexed. It needs to be re-indexed.

There was one point where I saw all members indexed, but they were wonky and out of order, with another family mixed in with them. I don't know how I saw it to replicate it, because I was buzzing along doing what I always do. But the wonky layout of the names was why I went to look at the image. It's giving research hints for the mother and the daughter by their names, so they are indexed but lost some place in the glitch. Weirdest thing ever!

@Amy Archibald @Christina Sachs Wagner Actually, all the names were indexed. You can search for them and find them--just can't pull up the record details for anyone except for the head of household and can't attach as a source to anyone except the head of household. And it does not impact every household on the census. At this point, it appears to have impacted households in which a user correction has been made (someone edited a name to better match the name on the image). But investigation is still underway to nail it down and correct it.
