In my tree with 638 folks, I use the "Bio notes" field extensively to document my ancestors' lives. I've recently noticed that some of these text fields have also unexpectedly shown up in someone else's "Bio notes". In at one recent instance I actually saw a complete "Bio note" for one of my aunts spontaneously swap with that of another of my aunts. This has me worried about the integrety of my entire tree. Has anyone else noticed anything like this?

I did this and received a prompt and very helpful reply addressing this glitch.
Some or perhaps all of this may well have been due to a ratty wireless mouse of mine. Now, with an old wired mouse, I have yet to see a repeat of this quirk.
