The following is a report I made to support@familysearch.org, against
The Typical Genealgoy Snob
dd_777
On June 5, 2026, I decided to create a separate profile for Rasmus Julius Sorensen, which I did: P6CW-RVX
I did this because, after studying, since 2018, the life and history of Erastus Julius Smith, his forebears, and descendants (including me), I had/have come to the conclusion that Erastus Julius Smith and Rasmus Julius Sorensen were probably two different people.
I had/have also come to the conclusions that:
1. Erastus' daughter, Emma, had a twin named Josephine Smith, not to be confused with their elder sister by the exact same name, Josephine Smith.
2. Erastus' biological mother was probably NOT Juliane Sorensdatter.
3. Erastus' biological father was probably Juliane's husband, Jorgen Christian Pedersen - NOT her employer, Rasmus Smidt.
As I was working on these profiles I suddenly discovered that someone else was working on them simultaneously. For instance, they kept merging Rasmus Julius Sorensen's file with Erastus Julius Smith's, almost as quickly as I could unmerge it. Worse, I discovered that they had deleted my Alert Notes on Erastus' profile, as well as those of several members of his family.
I submitted a report regarding this abuse.
On June 6, 2026, I discovered that the perpetrator was, apparently, identifying theirself as dd_777, and they were continuing to delete my Alert Notes almost as quickly as I could submit them, so I submitted another report of abuse.
As I noted in a deleted Alert Note update, dd_777 is entitled to have a difference of opinion regarding my conclusions about my great-grandfather and others, but they ARE NOT entitled to delete the work I've done on his profiles and others for years.
Sincerely,
Willie
