I can't duplicate this. I added two locations using the "Add..." button in the Master Location List and no records were linked to that location.
I accessed the Master Location List by going to View > Master Lists > Locations. Thanks for using Legacy.

It appeared to work OK if I added a location in association with my home person -- I added a fake death date and a silly location. The silly location appeared in the Master Location list. OK so far so good. Then I added a new, silly location in the Master Location list, using the 'add' button at the bottom of the list. I closed my Legacy pgm, then re-opened it to find that the silly location has co-opted 6 of my individuals' records! The silly location has replaced their burial location, marriage location,baptism location (4 individuals). I didnt want to revert to a backup, so I went in and for every occurrance of the silly location, I re-entered the correct location (which had disappeared off the Master Location list). Now I am afraid to do any work on my Legacy files, for fear of clobbering good data with bad, and never realizing it!!! So, how do I go back to the previous version of Legacy?
