[GNC] Is there a record of reconciliations performed along with closing balances and dates?

I have a couple of cash accounts that I reconcile on a non-regular
basis. (not once per month, week, etc.) I do this against saved paper
receipts, using the cash-on-hand as an ending balance. (so no bank
statement)
Occasionally, I have to make balancing entries to complete the
reconciliation. (Charged to Expenses:Miscellaneous:Balancing) I then
review this expense account periodically to see if I perhaps can remove
those transactions due to finding receipts or otherwise having made
corrections, that I didn't realize at the time, required adjusting or
deleting the balancing entries. (or even leaving them and reversing for
the pedantic out there)
I noticed some of my more recent balancing entries contain a Note of
what the cash-on-hand 'ending' balance was at the time. Further
examination of the relevant accounts, shows the balance no longer at
that amount as of that balancing transaction. (meaning I've entered
missing transactions somewhere or made other correcting entries earlier
in the register)
I'd like to clean those up, but I don't have such notes for older
balancing entries. (perhaps a previous discussion here prompted me to
start keeping those Notes? I can't seem to find that thread though.)
I tried the Reconciliation Report, but it isn't quite getting me what
I'm after.
I'd like to see a list of reconciliations performed, by date, with the
ending balance to which the account was reconciled. (or enough info to
be able to determine it)
Perhaps this doesn't exist, which is why I started putting the Notes in.
If anyone knows of such a beast, please advise.
*I'm not scared to delve into the data file if the info is there, but
just not exposed in the UI. Just kindly point me in the right direction.
(I'm using SQLite backend)
Thanks in advance!
