I’m in agreement with you Mr. Nerks. The Chief’s theory was that Grandma placed the article to save face and give respectability to her daughter’s condition. Now that we face an assortment of photoshopped pics and documents, it is more likely that the announcements are fake too.
Mr. & Mrs. blah blah blah would lend no decency to her daughter since her daughter’s name is not mentioned in the announcement. Since no one seems to have seen or know the Dunham daughter was pregnant, what shred of cover or decency would an Obama announcement provide for Stanley Ann?
Besides, Madelyn would have made a wiser choice on the address. She would have chosen a rental home near the University of Hawaii, not the priciest spot on the island owned by the college professor. She had record access to property titles through the bank. If Madelyn had planted the announcement in 1961 to impress the Dunham friends, it coulld have led to a huge embarassment. Can you imagine friends of the Dunhams stopping by to visit the new baby and knocking on the Leffredge’ door? Or mailing newborn baby gifts and sending flowers for Stanley to a wrong address?
This was planted long after 1961. Likely, at the time of one of the book writings, the run for Congress, or the run for the Senate.

Unfortunately, often repeated, that theory ultimately became a hindrance to further investigation.

Maybe at the same time as the date stamp of 6 June 2007 on the rear of the 'certification of live birth'.

Excellent observation. No one on the island remembers the 'wedding' - the birth of the child, and no one ever saw 'Mr & Mrs Obama' together with a baby. The entire 'family story' comes from Dreams From My Father...which the forged documentation attempts to follow.
