The site is Coinmama.

That sounds legit.

I got it from the top of the wallet.

I went to the Electrum.org site for the download. When I purchased the bc I was asked to enter the wallet address. I put in the 1N8vh.... address on the top of the wallet. Should I have chosen an address from the list of addresses? If so, I was unaware of that.

What do you mean with "from the top of the wallet"? The top-address on the Addresses list is fine. If you would have created one on the Receive tab, that's fine too. I don't have an address "on the top", so I'm not sure what you mean.

I think I've figured out what happened through this line of questioning. Could it be the address (1N8vh...) I copied is not, in fact, the address but the name of the wallet? By not knowing, I should have gone into the wallet and selected a "receive" address from the list and an amount so the bc could be routed correctly? If this is what happened I suppose this is a fatal error on my part and, given the security protocols, the bc can not be moved out of 1N8vh... since there is no such address owner.
