Standardized places- Somerset County, Pennsylvania, United States

Shirley Rogers

For a long time the standardized places were correct for Somerset County in Pennsylvania, then Shaw Mines, Summit Township was inserted into the locations. All the cemeteries, whether in the town or surrounding townships have this inserted. One cannot find the county seat, which is Somerset in Somerset county in Pennsylvania. I am including examples below:

Samuels Evangelical Lutheran Church Cemetery, Lavansville, Somerset Township, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States (correct) NOT Samuels Evangelical Lutheran Church Cemetery, Somerset, Shaw Mines, Summit Township, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States

Somerset County Memorial Park, Somerset, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States (correct) NOT Somerset County Memorial Park, Somerset, Shaw Mines, Summit Township, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States

 Somerset, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States (town & county seat) (correct) NOT Somerset, Shaw Mines, Summit Township, Somerset, Pennsylvania, Untied States

 A capitalization problem:Rockwood IOOF Cemetery, Rockwood, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States (correct) NOT Rockwood Ioof Cemetery, Rockwood, Somerset, Pennsylvania, United States

This is very annoying and I don't know why for years it was correct and now it's not. What can be done about correcting the database, besides what I am doing now, which is typing in the correct place each time. Shirley
