Hi: Am taking advantage of the cold and snow to do some 'clean up' on my Sources & Citations .. Not my strong point to start!!! I have census sources for various years that were accidentally 'mixed together' and I have been going thru and correcting those, putting them into the correct CENSUS YEAR source. Now that I've finished that I notice the original source (where they had gotten mixed together) has 'remnants' still there under citations like below: Brodeau, Jane (Name) 1920 census-Marlboro, MA Fitzgerald, Mary (Name) 1930 census All the ones reflected citations for births, marriages, residences, occupations, etc., and they have been removed from this list .. It appears that only the NAME citations are 'stuck' but when I click on a NAME there shows 'no source' on the screen for me to fix or remove. If there is a way to break software, I will find it! Anyone have any idea how to remove these NAME citations under the above circumstances? Pat

I daresay these are citations that were imported with people from Ancestry or some other GEDCOM source and that they are evidence for the Preferred Name when there are multiple names. See http://sqlitetoolsforrootsmagic.wikispaces.com/Citations+Invisible+Revealed for a more detailed explanation and tools in RMtrix or in SQLite to expose them to your control.
