I have noticed that when editing locations that my current option selections
and version of Legacy V8 (the latest) has an automatic internal
“combine/combine with” feature that sometimes creates unexpected results. I
have not determined what particular set of matches causes this automatic
combine, but I am not using the conventional US 4 place location convention and
I do know that mismatched lat/long entries do not prevent combining. This
might be the cause for others to have unexpected event changes.

I had this issue as well, and honestly thought I was crazy! I had at least
a dozen people with burial location of Bellvieu Cemetery, Benton, Bossier
Parish, Louisiana. I know this because I was going from a book and can source
every one (it is a family plot). I went to print a list so To make sure I
photographed all of them when I went, and it only gave me three people.

O help. I don't think you're going mad.
I had this happen the other day but caught it straight away and wasn't sure
what I'd done. Just one location changed to a new location I'd just entered.
The new location was a birth location. The location that changed was the death
and burial location for that person and for everyone using that death location.
I know I made a mess of the new entry and edited it a few times as I found out
more about the location. I was also having some computer problems and Legacy
crashed a couple of times so I put it down to that.
I've now restored an earlier image of my computer and all seems well again.

No, no clean-up, no merging, nothing like that. In fact, I've been
working on a totally different Legacy file for the past month.
