To figure out who wrote it, you need to go back to the tinted 'no sweater image' with the text 'thank you mom for not tossing your yearbooks'

Daughter also says, that's my mom standing next to...Stanley Ann...(I just inadvertently cropped the top off that image, but that text is there where I previously posted the image.)

That indicates the girl from the French Club image, you can see her THREE times in a composite.

Because the same girl appears as 'her mother' in the French Club Group on the daughters webpages:

The question then arose, is that rather plain looking girl (in the centre) the daughter refers to really her mother, or might it have been one of these three girls? We try not to make obvious mistakes...

However, the question answers itself by the image Maraniss shows, because there's a name for the girl, one to the left of Stanley...(who he tells us is Maxine Box.)

All very innocent mistakes, right? Not meant to confuse? Bamboozled by experts, more like it. Silly Maraniss - thanks to him, the last piece of the puzzle falls into place.

So, you might think, well there she is, and her name is in the list of names with the image he shows us, although it took an hour or more to sort out the gibberish. But if that list of names isn't genuine, AND IT DOESN'T SAY STANLEY ANN DUNHAM...what have you?

There isn’t any innocent reason to crop the names and the girls. Or for the ridiculous “mistakes” about which girl is next to Stanley.

Comparing the two rows of girls, and considering the list of names would be centered to the pic and guesstimating length of names, including "FIRST ROW" or "BOTTOM ROW" etc., there are at least 13 girls on the first row and at least 12 on the second row. The odd number of girls per row would account for them not being centered (going by half posing left and half posing right) with the two columns of names. Also, there may be a teacher on the left (our left) which throws the left/right poses toward the right of the picture.

We can see there are people standing on the right (our right) that have been cropped so we are missing at least 9 people from that picture.

Something else, could the vests have been earned like lettering in football or other sports? New members might not have earned their sweaters when the pic was taken. Most times you wouldn't get your sweater or jacket until you'd been in an organization a year and it was presented at the end of the year banquet or other ceremonial event. If this were the case, then SAD may not have "forgotten" her vest but just hadn't earned it yet. Could be the newer members were to the outter edges of the group but they've been cropped out.

Remember the movie "Grease" when the coach presented Danny Zuko with his sweater at the end of the year? I didn't get my jackets until the end of the year and the same now with my kids. Hey, just throwing stuff out there since we're working at a disadvantage.
