I too contacted the Alabama Archives about an error in the spelling of my g-g-grandfather Andrew Milligan ASTON. He's listed as A. M. ASHTON. The return e-mail I received kindly told me that for this database they are only copying the records they have on file exactly as they are written. I respect that decision but hope that they will one day have an additional database containing submitted and corrected information. By the way, when searching the current database by unit only (no surname entered) I found surnames through QUINN. Monya Fayette Co.
