I think it depending on the authorities in question. Hawaii sounded extremely liberal due to the large quantities of home births and recent statehood. Their provision to provide COLB to offspring of residents born out of state or abroad is very open to abuse. The law states “any adult” could apply for the certificate or either of the parents of the newborn or adopted child.. Sounds like a very loose system to me.
Did his mother leave Washington in the summer of 1960, did she graduate January or June of 1960? Yearbooks from Mercer high Class of ‘60 are conviently now ‘misplaced.’
Is there any record that the age matches up with birth in 1961. The Kindergarten classmate in Hawaii provides a ‘67 class photo, yet the DOE in Hawaii has no records on his enrollment.
Just another coincidental missing record that would have stated names, dates and pertinent information regarding the identity of the candidate.

THAT is why Berg wants the vault (original) copy.
Ann Dunham along with her family left WA state in June 1960 following her graduation from high school. It has been well documented that Ann completed one semester at the University of Hawaii at Manao in 1960 and then she disappeared into thin air. There are no reports of her being pregnant or giving birth on the island and the next reported sighting of her is once again in Seattle when she visits her friend Susan Blake, where Susan changed the baby. Maxine Box reported visiting with Ann two weeks later at the home of her mother’s friend.
The kindergarten photo of Jr would have been taken before he and Ann joined Lolo in Indonesia. I wonder why yet more records have gone among the missing. It is curious!
