--In his overview there was the comment "--According to his Declaration of Intention he was born Sept 5 1895 in Sydilkow Ukraine Russia, and he entered the country af Boston Mass under the name Hershel Blinder on Aug 7 1913 on the vessel Cymric"

--In the Timeline event for his death, there is a link to his Death Notice, showing it was published in the Boston Globe on Feb. 22, 1993 and saying he died on February 20.

Both of those have been there on his profile for more than a year and a half.
Yet earlier today Scott E. Nathan went in and changed his birth to October 14, 1894 and his death to October 30, 1967.
And added a Gravestone Photo as Profile ID that matches the one in https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/217596171/harry-berger

Is this vandalism, or a case of two profiles having been merged that should not have been merged, and Scott adamantly wanting it to be the couple he created his to be?
The fact that somebody on findagrave made the same error does not, in my view, make it okay for it to be on Geni.

Scott -
Look at the FindaGrave Memorial I give the link to here, look at Harry's name in Hebrew there, then go to the profile linked as daughter in that findagrave and see the Hebrew given for her father. That Harry and Edith are NOT the parents of Gurnice.
Look at this marriage record: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q28K-CRF8
And look at this marriage record: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6CBS-KHGV

There have been so many changes made, an unmerge may cause problems. Should it be done?
