[Babase] possible interpolation problem

Hello Karl, Jeanne, Susan, Catherine (or anyone who could help)
Russ was looking at some immigrant males in babase and found the
following strange occurrences. The following males are listed as
immigrants (matgrp of 9) in biograph but are in study groups in members
and census from their birthdates on. I think that the matgrps are
correct and that the members and census rows are not (otherwise some of
these guys stayed in their matgrps for 18 years). I am wondering if
anyone has any idea why the data is like this and how we would go about
fixing it. Before I start blindly flipping through binders to find out
when they really did show up in study groups I thought somebody might
have some insight. Could it just be an interpolation issue (I hope)? I
checked and the data is the same in Foxpro and in the new system.
Thanks,
Leah
