I've found a few errors in the names of some IGIs.

There are some IGIs with names which INCLUDE their place of residence. i.e. I've found many names like Jose MARIA DE LA TORRE (plus the surnames)in which the Indexer mistakenly ADDED their residence (Maria De La Torre)as part of their name! Of course there are many OTHER names and residences this has occurred.

If the name looks "odd" in comparison to their parents, it's better to look at the actual digital image of that event. This is a good way to eliminate duplicate people.

Jose Carlos, can you give us an example. De la Torre is one of my family names, not a location.

Researching: Romero, Romero y Chavez, Alderete, de la Torre, Gomez Hurtado de Mendoza, Gutierrez, Padilla, Pena, Camarena

Maria De La Torre is a ranch in Colotlan, Jalisco.

here's one IGI of many examples:

name: Ma. De La Torre Valenzuela Rl. gender: Female baptism/christening date: 11 May 1776 baptism/christening place: SAN LUIS, COLOTLAN, JALISCO, MEXICO father's name: Marcos Valenzuela mother's name: Rita Del Rl. indexing project (batch) number: C60286-4 system origin: Mexico-ODM source film number: 443674

The actual name on the baptism record is: Maria Antonia Valenzuela

Awesome! It is great when an event like this one occurs. It makes the hours
