Birth Announcement #5066. Where did this come from? I can’t find it; I can’t get to TD; which newspaper did it come from; where is the masthead? What date published?

I live in Hawaii and my daughter was born in Hawaii. We have a copy of her birth certificate from 2007 (just a few months before Obama’s ccopy was made). It say FILED just like Obama’s. I would say they look identical except for the fact when my daughter’s is scanned the embossing does show up from the back side. I would think a possible way to prove Obama was born here is to go to the archives of the library or Honolulu Advertiser or Star Bulletin and look in the vital statistic section of the newspapers for that time frame to see if they published a birth announcement. If one can not be found it does not prove he wasn’t born here (not sure of the reliability) but if there is an announcement then that would prove he was.

The August 1961 Star Bulletin DOES have Obama’s birth announcement.

I will try and post a picture in my next post. Is this the correct thread to post all this in? You can Google Earth for the 6085 Kalanianaole hwy address and see where the house is. The City and County of Honolulu has info about the parcel, building permits, etc. The original home was built in 1948, with a guest cottage (rental maybe?) added later. http://gis.hicentral.com/website/parcelzoning/viewer.htm

This is from the Star Bulletin from Aug (14, 15, or 16) 1961. The date was cut off when I copied it and don’t remember the exact date since I searched quite a few days to find it.
