Columbia College, NYC. I am certain that if he had a potential claim to BHO Sr’s estate, he was contacted. His mother & g-parents knew where he was.
Could that have been when he makes that cryptic statement in Dreams that he found papers (birth certif, vaccination records, & letter (? — one other thing) & was shocked to discover that he did not see his name or his mother’s? -— I may not have these details right, but it is in Dreams.
His father’s death may have been why he was rummaging.
“I discovered this article, folded away among my birth certificate and old vaccination forms, when I was in high school. It’s a short piece, with a photograph of him. No mention is made of my mother or me, and I’m left to wonder whether the omission was intentional on my father’s part, in anticipation of his long departure. Perhaps the reporter failed to ask personal questions, intimidated by my father’s imperious manner; or perhaps it was an editorial decision, not part of the simple story that they were looking for. I wonder, too, whether the omission caused a fight between my parents.”
