Needed to pull up a g-g-grandmother's narrative the other day. Since i haven't looked at her in over a year, i glanced thru her person view, and opened one of the census tags to see what's in the CD. Clicking on the citation, i was horrified because it wasn't listed in the Master Source List. I sorted by number, instead of the usual abbreviation, and there's a missing number there.
I ran an MSL report, by number. Again, that number is missing.
I printed the Individual Narrative. The full citation, including the repository is there.
I re-indexed, optimized, and ran VFI. The only problems reported are missing exhibits, which i already knew about.
I looked at the MSL again, and that source is still missing.
In the printout, i noticed three other numbers missing. To the best of my knowledge, i've never deleted any of the sources. This particular one is associated with 5 people, none of whom have been deleted.
How can/should i restore the source to the MSL without monkeying with the number attached to it in the CD?
