<<What I am wondering is if any of the obviously correct data will ever replace the obviously incorrect. For example, I find an entry for my ancestor John Doe and his wife is shown as Jane Doe, with a warning that husband and wife have the same surname. I add my opinion that the wife's name is Jane Bloggs, and provide a good Source, such as a Marriage Certificate. Will Jane always be shown as both Doe and Bloggs or will the incorrect Jane Bloggs entry be removed?>>
The nFS staff are working very hard to make nFS correctible, and have a place for good sources. For now, when you make a correction for a name, look at the >Summary tab, click on the >Name field, and select the correct version there. Your name will appear as the one that made the change, so that you can be contacted by someone who has a different opinion, but the correct information will appear on most screens. I have quite a number of marriages where the surname gets a warning like your instance, but they really do have the same surname, so care needs to be taken.
