Ann,
Those glue lines,if wood glue, will show yellow under epoxy. I don't know about other types of glue. To test, wet the area with water(don't soak, glue will weaken) the lines should show as they would under a finish. If the lines are just a wide joint, maybe you could remove enough glue with a knife, to allow re-filling with a wood dust/epoxy paste.
Hope this helps, Steve
