Apparently what is happening is that when I drag within a datagrid to another row in the same datagrid, the DragDestination returns the name of the TEMPLATE field, and NOT the name of the INSTANCE field, that is the field named after the column, and the index number.

When I drag from one column of data in a datagrid to another column of data in the SAME datagrid, I get what you might expect, which is, the dgDataControl of the target contains the long id of the column name I am dragging from, and the dragdestination contains the long id of the column I am dropping onto.
