Resolved my boot issue, I think. Errors on FAT32 ESP, my sda1.

Issue started with no space left on device. 
Then I would add new UEFI boot entry for sda's ESP for 18.04, but on reboot 
UEFI would not use it, erased it and entries for all the .efi possibilities 
were added from boot device, my sdc.

Not sure if all fixes required, perhaps it originally was originally
error corrupted fat32 ESP. But that error would keep appearing on
reboot.

Reinstalled Asus UEFI, same version as one used since April 2018.
Unplugged all drives to get UEFI to reset, removed all entries from UEFI with 
efibootmgr.
Added UEFI boot entry for 18.04 using efibootmgr to to boot from sda1.
Every reboot, erased entry to boot sda, and only booted with rEFInd on sdc or 
external drive.
Ran  fsck.vfat and it cleared error bit saying it may have not been umounted 
correctly. It is mounted with fstab in sda's install.
On reboot same issue, all UEFI entries for sda missing, and fsck.vfat showed 
error bit. I believe that is why UEFI would not use my sda1, ESP for booting.

Using another install so sda1, ESP not mounted.
Then totally reformatted sda1 using command line, mkfs, not gparted. 
Updated ESP/efi entry in fstab in Ubuntu 18.04 install with new UUID. 
Totally uninstalled & reinstalled grub signed version. 
System now boots from ESP on sda again.
