Yup. Deformed like that deformed e. Or any of the other obviously deformed characters displayed on that exhibit.

And the error in the age was more likely a clerical error, or an error made by whomever supplied the information at the time.

Perhaps you guys should concentrate on getting a copy direct from Hawaii rather than inventing a bunch of conspiracy theories. It’s almost like a cottage industry.

May I make a few observations, using some of the immigration data as shown on the WND website...

WND LINK

VISA ISSUED: August, 1959 - Date of birth 18/6/34 (I think that's June 18.)

31st August 1961 - Date of birth 18th June 1934 NAME OF WIFE CROSSED OUT, THEN ANN S DUNHAM ENTERED NO CHILDREN

31ST AUGUST 1961. MEMO, extension granted. Full name of child and date of birth. MOTHER NOT NAMED.

17th August 1962 - Date of birth June 18, 1936

MARRIED. NO NAME OF WIFE. ONE SON: ROY

June 6, 1963 - Date of birth June 18, 1936

NO NAME OF WIFE OR CHILD GIVEN

25 years of age on arrival in Hawaii in 1959=BIRTH YEAR 1934

YEAR OF BIRTH ON TOMBSTONE 1936

Year of birth according to above 1961 document: 1936.

Make sense of it? I certainly can't, the MEMO looks like a plant, and they buried him with a year of birth that contradicts his own initial documentation and the newspaper article.
