* FridgeLogic: Lwaxana deleted seven years of her personal journal because she had a daughter before Troi who drowned in an accident. But how could her journal be the ''only'' record of this? What about Starfleet biographical records? Wouldn't she have childhood friends or family members who knew about it?
** Betazoids are telepathic. Knowing that Lwaxana finds the topic distressing to think about, they probably go out of their way not to bring it up.
** The journal may not be the only record, perhaps Ian's Starfleet bio does include Kestra. Deanna had absolutely no idea what she was looking for so no idea where to start. But also, maybe the bio was scrubbed. We have no idea what kind of privacy laws they may have, and it could and probably does vary by Federation planet. Granted, it certainly never seems that way, but it's certainly possible. Also, Lwaxana is at least some sort of ambassador and may have pulled strings.

* GoodTroiEpisode: For Lwaxana. One of only a few episodes that explores the character in real depth, and it works.
