Caption Fields Filled in & Can't Delete

[prlphoto8@gmail.com]

Hi,

I have a MacBook Pro, running Mojave 10.14.6 and using Photo Mechanic 6.0 2725 (id89a41). Sometimes before I ingest a disk, I set up the Ingest box and uncheck the "Apply Metadata Template to Photos" box to get a blank caption field. After I ingest a disk, & I look at the caption field, all the spaces are blank except the Creator/Photographer field is filled in with the name Patrick Myers and the Copyright field is filled in with 2018 Mojo Studios. I have looked thru the preferences to reset something but can't figure out how to fix this problem. I have attached a screen shot. Please advise.
Thank You,
Phil Long

Without the original image from the camera to investigate, this is just speculation, but I suspect that the photographer entered that data into their camera and the camera wrote that data into the EXIF data and PM is picking it up.
