I think you may be right, Kathy--someone else populated the fields in their db,
uploaded and then Legacy inadvertently downloaded to Shirley's db.
I was also wondering if turning on "LDS" in Legacy is the same as "linking"
with FamilySearch? I currently do neither in Legacy.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Numbers appearing on Descendant Report
That's interesting - I have none of those in any of my notes, yet I do have
lots of profiles "linked" with FamilySearch.
I wonder then if it has more to do with whoever uploaded the original
data/gedcom to Family Search that has now been linked to the different
individuals in your tree?
