Hi Adrian,
Thanks for responding. Below is the schema data for the tables where we
always see corruption. You'll notice they have triggers for a postgres
extension called Slony-I which provides replication service. It's not
clear if/how that's a factor, though.
What specific version of Slony?
Did you upgrade Slony when you moved from 9.1 to 9.5?
Trace you showed in your first post was for:
ams.alert_attribute_bak
I do not see that below.
Are the errors on any specific field?
The errors are occurring on the primary, correct?
Where is the data coming from?

In my previous post when I referred to table schema I mean that to
include associated schema like triggers, constraints, etc. Basically
what is returned by \d in psql.
