Thank you Derek! You were exactly right. Joint checking was under assets. It is 
so funny how GnuCash opened after the migration. I usually just keep the joint 
checking account open and, like you, never enter transactions via the 
income/expense accounts so the new-to-me view that came up really had me 
freaked out. BTW I don’t know what you mean by CoA view.

I started having computer problems back in March, so now I can look forward to 
reconciling 6 months of transactions!

Thank you everyone for your help.
