A busy day at the office

There are many incorrect records in New Family Search. I noticed a new one today. They had Solomon Gee's mother-in-law as his spouse. This appeared just recently. I didn't know that they could get married that fast. I opened a case in Feedback to Support at Family Search and entered the following in my e-mail to them:

There are 170 contributors to Solomon Gee’s record. All records are correct except the following:

Record MS5M-QHY (Solomon Gee) has two spouses listed 1. Deborah Huntley and 2. Solomon’s mother in law Deborah DeWolf.

Today, 15 April 2012, I separated this record out and put the following notation in the Discussions.
“This record has no combined records. It lists the correct spouse Deborah Huntley and an incorrect record spouse, Solomon's mother in law Deborah Huntley. Please do not combine”
Contributor 1 Contact name:FamilySearch
Contributor 2 Contact name:unknown4470317

There were 120 Combined records before I started. In the Ordinances tab the sealing of Deborah DeWolf to Solomon was READY. He should not be sealed to his mother-in-law as they were never married.

Could you please remove the incorrect spouse in this record?

Something is happening to the data in New Family Search. It is like a moving target. New challenges appear almost daily.

  1. So, who is doing all this changing? It is a little spooky that people manipulate the data so much!

    1. I presume it is the people at NFS who are doing something that causes the combinations of records. I will try and find out.
