I figured out how to find the ghost location! It is for a marriage in which the two do not exist in the database. These marriages do show up in the Marriage list with blanks for names. I simply tagged all marriages with blanks with a Tag 6 and then went to family view and quickly toggled through Marriage Tag ^ in the lower right corner of the bottom toolbar until I saw the location.
Porter, you have erased locations for such marriages by inadvertently merging it with the blank location.

I try to delete it and it says "Cannot delete this location. It is currently being used. Would you like to view the records that use it?" I click yes and get "no records were found thet use this location." Obviously it is being used, but I have searched all places, birth, death, baptism, burial, marriage, and event, and still can not find where it is used. I want to put maybe 1795 in the notes using move tagged entry into event notes., but currently I have 1/4 of my locations tagged for another purpose. So I cannot do that until I am finished with going through my 5000 locations tagging each as I finish with the other task. Is there another way to find what record uses the ghost location?
