I have seen this as well, though the info seemed to be on their detail page when I went back there. Fortunately, it didn't duplicate the info when I detached and reattached. Even on the reattachment, it didn't show on the source linker page.

Also, when attaching the 1940 Census a Residence Event is created for 1935 but none is created for 1940! The 1940 Residence Event has to be created manually.

This has been reported here many times and we've been told the programmers are working on a fix for this bug.
