This profile was identified back in April as part of a fraud.
I find today that it has been reconnected to the main tree, a contributor created a "daughter" using a Familysearch tree and myrootsplace as sources. No other source, no comments in the change log, no G2G post.
My first movement was to disconnect, but I reverted that and left all in place.
Can someone find a correct source for this relation? (Before advising us to "find a definitive source that this is a fake" PLEASE check the Goodman Genealogy Fabrications category and count the profiles in it.) This is endless. We will never have a chance at a decent tree if we allow such profiles to stay, as those that are linked to this one.
If the profile is found to be valid, then its relations must be checked until the link to the fraudulent genealogy is found and action taken to destroy the connection between fake and legit profiles.
Also, can someone with knowledge in the subject check the coat of arms?
Thank you.
EDIT: Also please check the profile of his father, Elliott-3012. The portrait is "The Painter and his Pug", an auto-portrait of William Hogarth, in 1745. This person, John Elliott, whose portrait is the portrait of William Hogarth in 1745, is 21 degrees from Sam Houston, 18 degrees from the Queen, etc.
