The document of interest (.doc) is in that last folder.
I am trying to figure out how this situation came about.
It is likely that I did this: I used HoundahSpot to locate the document (an older version - see below), opened it via HoudahSpot, edited and then saved it.
(I regularly use Houndah spot to search Evernotes locally but I now suspect this routine maybe causing issues. I like HoundahSpot, and use it to search globally as a gradually transition, e.g., Word docs to Evernote.)
My thinking here being that this was a process that was the same as opening the document via Evernote, editing it and saving it. This appears not to be the case. The unedited version of this document exists in Evernote. The edited version is in a containing folder with a suffix .backup. The unedited version is in another containing folder. Both are findable with HoundahSpot only the unedited version is findable with Evernote.
Any insights on accessing the Evernote file structure and where I may be messing with it, please let me know.

I have a file/document/.doc in local Evernote storage on a Mac that is not accessible via Evernote, I use HoundahSpot to find it.
Finder info. on this document:
/Users/moses/Library/Application Support/Evernote/accounts/Evernote/mosesmoses/external-edits/XXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX.XXXXXXXX.backup
The document of interest (.doc) is in that last folder.
