One more comment. It seems that MiKTeX 2.7 may instead place the
texmf directory in the root of the hard drive. On my C drive, I find a
texmf directory so located.
Hadn't noticed it previously.

Where exactly are you saying the texmf folder is on your C drive?
I've found that MiKTeX 2.7 is placing additional packages in:
C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7\tex\latex. Maybe, this is done in this
manner because I selected to install MiKTeX for 'anyone who uses this
computer'. If it was installed for 'user only' then the packages may
have been installed into the UserConfig folder, who knows. At some
point in the next couple of weeks I "may" test the theory :-}.
When you use the MiKTeX package manager (at least through v. 2.6), it
assumes you are adding the package to your base installation, so the new
package goes under C:\Program Files\MiKTeX... The only packages I ever
had in UserConfig\tex\latex were ones I manually installed from zip
archives.
