Allen Caulk
Is an example of "hidden info" (I can come up with hundreds more but let's keep it simple)
This file was uploaded from a GEDCOM. Within the GEDCOM was the following info (in the notes)
"!DEATH: CERT FOR WIFE RACHEL, KING CO WASHINGTON. DEATH: CARRIAGE LIST AT ALLEN'S FUNERAL, IN POSS
OF GERALD CAULK. MARR: IGI-M533842/0506; REC FOR ALLEN AND RACHEL, MONTGOMERY CO ILLINOIS. MARR: IGIM533842/

sources for both marriages is; roll #1315684 Old letter states that George's aunt was living with Allen on 20 May 1913. Joseph Sisco, of
Iowa, and Jasper Stokes, of Oklahoma city, were also on the carriage list for Allen's funeral. BIRTH: Correct birth date from fam rec of

Carriage list for Allen's funeral, included, Joseph Sisco, ofOlewein, Iowa; and Jasper Stokes, of Oklahoma City."
Now I've looked thru the entre profile and can not find it anywhere, overview, Documents, profile etc.
Now here's the thing. If I download a GEDCOM (This is a ver 1 ) of him and his Descendants and import it tru RootsMagic 4, WALLA the info is there.
BUT, if I import it into The software from my heritage it's not there. It's also there in Lineage Family Tree (FTM will not accept ver 1 GEDCOMs)
So I know the info is in the profile somewhere, but where is it hiding at?
And her's another question. When the info is downloaded the sources are missing. Is this aproblem with my software or with my software or because Geni downloads a vers 1 GEDCOM (will an older program pick it up?)
I hate to make a ticket and go to the techs. Some one must have the answer on the top of thier head.
