I need to learn how to post with a screen shot.
RE: Connecticut SS Number and BOR claiming that Barry’s daddy lived in Connecticut, that’s why it was issued there. (editorial comment, how STUPID, do they think we are? Barry Sr. left Harvard, Mass MANY YEARS BEFORE THAT SS# WAS ISSUED.
There was an article on About.com, that listed his birth as Queens hopsital, and Barry Sr. living in Connecticut.
I contacted the author of the article a couple days ago. I haven’t heard back from her, BUT, the article has been fixed to get rid of the Conn. reference AND THE QUEENS HOSPITAL REF.
I had respect for this author as she is very experienced in Ancestry. I’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that About.com scrubbed it, but I think it was the author since I haven’t heard SQUAT after. I did ask her where she obtained her information about Conn. Since I don’t anticipate receiving an answer, I will assume she got the info from everyone that I could find that quoted it, Snopes.
I didn't see that article, but I would be VERY interested in HER NAME. Do you have it?
