The town is spelled Würzelbrunn, Floß, Neustadt an der Waldnaab, Bayern, Deutschland, but Würzelbrunn is missing the letter "r" after the letter "ü".

The place name suggestions that appear actually come from a database maintained by FamilySearch. If you have spotted a spelling mistake in their database, the instructions for getting it corrected are on https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-add-or-correct-a-standardized-place-in-family-tree.
