I think that if one were to run the "Test all Multimedia Paths" and make sure there is a check mark in the "Make a list of all missing files", then that list will state specifically from where Legacy has linked the missing file. For example, it might say Event, Source, or whatever.

Pictures for the person's events do not appear directly in their photo gallery but on the right of the thumbnails you will see Individual with a down arrow, click that and you will see a list of other categories (events). If there is an asterisk * beside that category there are pictures linked to that category. Select it and you will see the media linked to the category. For media linked to the person's sources you will have to open their source list. Sources with pictures will have an asterisk in the picture tab label. Select the tab to see the pictures.
