Remarkably, all INS records for the week of Obama’s birth, Aug. 1 through Aug. 7, 1961, were missing from the end of Reel 184 and were not discovered anywhere on Reel 185 or any other microfilm reel in the record group.

MISSING IMMIGRATION RECORDS LINK

So the question is, who brought the child into the country and how old was he? Who did he live with until the Dunhams became involved? Frank Marshall Davis and Helen Canfield, both associated with Paul Robeson, had five mixed race children of their own, they lived approx 35 miles out of Honolulu, in a beach shack. Who would have noticed?

Maybe Maya Angelou's name is on that missing record.Maya was working in CAIRO with the stepson of W.E.B. Du BOIS. Her brother lived in Hawaii. Until one lets go of the Stanley Ann Dunham myth, it's an endless black hole, which is just what the myth was designed to be.

Wouldn’t there be records/log of who viewed those immigration documents and when?

MCSO investigators are currently waiting for NARA to duplicate the remaining 1961 INS passenger cards in both record groups for subsequent inspection at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
What a can of worms it'll be when they're never produced!

This picture of 1 or 2 year old Obama standing up in just his underpants---it doesn't look like a diaper---bothers me for the following reasons:

1. Where are pictures of Obama's mother between the time she became pregnant and the time Obama was born Aug. 4, 1961?

2. We have no pictures of the mother or the grandparents or the father holding baby Obama soon after he was born.

3. We have no pictures of a pregnant mother.

4. We have no pictures of the mother in the hospital.

5. I ask these questions, because from looking at pictures on the internet of Obama growing up, it looks like the family liked to take pictures of Obama. It looks like they enjoyed taking family pictures like many American families did during that time.

6. But, on the other hand, I can't find any pictures of Obama's mother in the 9 months from the time that she supposedly became pregnant to the time that she gave birth to Obama on Aug. 4, 1961.

7. I find it strange that there are no pictures of the mother in the nine months of her pregnancy and the days and weeks soon after giving birth, because---I think it is safe to say---most families, especially with the first born, are so excited about a child being born that they can't wait to take all kinds of pictures of the new born with as many family members and friends as possible.

8. But with Obama's family, for some strange reason, we don't have any pictures of a pregnant mother, or pictures of the mother or the father or the grandparents or friends holding baby Obama soon after he was born.

9. It is as if Obama's mother became pregnant, went to the hospital in secret by herself to have her baby, and nobody in the family and no friends knew that she was pregnant or went to a hospital or had a baby until months after Obama was born.

Strange. Very strange.

Yes, that toddler photo exactly shows a typical Hawaiian cottage aka “shack” near the beach, I’ve seen many exactly like it around 1970. Totally typical. I remember seeing on FR a couple of years ago - the outside sink (I’ve washed clothes in ones exactly like it), the what looks to be a croton plant, etc.

Sounds as though he was with FMD. Since he arrived in HI (most likely) as a baby. I wonder what his real birth date or approximate is. I doubt if Maya Angelou (I was wondering if it was she) brought him as a week old infant?
