It is the calendar on my iPad I was referring to and I was looking for a setting on the iPad. I have now found the problem. it was in my settings on my iMac for synchronizing the iPad. I had the box checked that said do not synchronize events older than 30 days. I have now unchecked the box and now have a historical record on my iPad of all events. Great news... thanks for your help.
