When I open the Search window Query by Example, the word rosemarie
appears in the FamilySearch ID field. I clear the fields, close,
then reopen and that word continues to appear there. This happened
in 7.5.0.147 as well. Very annoying to have to clear that field
before Searching. Thanks.

No, because there are two people. One was born and baptised but died aged 12.
The other person had a child and got married. I'd mixed the two up until I
found the burial.

There is no journal function that will list all the transactions/data
entries made for a day. Legacy does however have a date modified for
individuals and marriages so you can get a list for the people records
that were changed but not what data was changed for them.
