Thanks for all the responses. I have checked and the Notes do in fact go to the "Unnamed Source" - so special thanks to Cathy.
My current problem is that some how between getting Legacy to export the Tree and it getting into Ancestry many of the locations have been transported across the world in the Lifestory but ok in the Facts!
