At the end of July, some of Stanley Ann Dunham's passport documentation had been released to Mr. Christopher Strunk by the State Department following a lawsuit brought against the State Department for failing to comply with a Freedom of Information request originally made in October 2008.
The released documents indicate Dunham's husband, Lolo Soetoro, petitioned the Immigration and Naturalization Service of the State Department in 1967 to obtain a waiver to return to the United States to rejoin his wife and her infant son, Barack Obama Jr.
As usual, the birth certificate for Barack Obama was conspicuously absent from the documents. Obama's birth certificate would surely have been required for Obama to travel back and forth from Hawaii to Indonesia, and it was likely submitted by Ann Dunham for a passport issued to her in July 1965. However, the records for this passport are lost, missing, and presumably destroyed.
Although Obama's birth certificate was missing, an extremely poor and nearly unreadable copy of Ann Dunham's birth certificate was included with the other documentation. Thanks to some heavy-duty noise reduction software, and a few tricks of the trade, I was able to clean it up enough to read the key information it contained. There were a number of surprises.
Here is the original image.
Here is the cleaned and annotated image.
By most accounts, Stanley Ann Dunham was born in Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. A handful of other sites indicated Wichita, Kansas, and the same hospital name, Saint Francis, one Kansas blog got the location of Ann's mom as Augusta, but none made mention of Sedgwick, which is 21 miles to the North of Wichita and about 190 miles Southwest of Ft. Leavenworth.
The biggest "shocker," which nobody has ever mentioned, is that the first name of Ann's mom is MADELINE - not MADELYN as is universally reported. Father, Stanley Armour's usual address was listed as Wichita, even though the Kansas websites listed it as El Dorado. According to rumor, Stan and Maddy were never married. They certainly did not live together when Ann was born. However, her BC says "Yes," presumably to avoid all of the different laws pertaining to unmarried parents at the time.
Stan's occupation is "Corporal" in the business or industry of the "US Army." Madeline's occupation and place of employment looks to be intentionally scribbled.
Not exactly "earth-shaking" news, but definitely undermines the "facts" written in Obama's "Dreams From My Father."
I hope anything I remembered incorrectly will be corrected!

name of street wrong spelling.
MADELYNE written as MADLYN
and now we see it as MADELINE.
Note my comment above. Hopefully Fred Nerks will remember the document I mention. It is significant because it lends more credibility to said document, due to the Madeline name spelling.
I spell my name differently than is on my BC.
Barack Obama = Stanley’s Tool.
Ah, so I sort of remembered, but not the way I thought it was.
So sheds no light, other than that the entire history is even weirder.
Oops.
And who-ever completed the BC for Stanley Ann, couldn't spell the name of her mother?
It has to be MADELYN. The woman was interviewed - at least we can expect SHE would have known?
I'm ignoring the 'grandmother' tag. I very much doubt if she was anything of the kind...
That’s the first thing I thought of (Madelyn or Madeline) while reading the thread and was hoping by now your question (and mine) would’ve been answered. Wasn’t it a BC?
Will check back later.
Fred, do you see the significance of the Unclassified Doc you just posted? It is UNCLASSIFED, ergo what was CLASSIFIED?
I'd never read this before. Wouldn't surprise me at all. Is it common knowledge for everyone but me? Of course, I'm out of the loop on so much....Good thread, Fred Nerks!
sorry, I have no idea...
Not in any Christian church would living together be accepted as marriage. Some states had what was called 'common law.' (6 years or more normally) It's only meaning was for the man to 'Pay up' if they separated. However common law marriage is not accepted in Hawaii now and probably not then.
They were married in 1965, she left Soetoro in 1972.Divorced in 1980. 40 or 50 years is not even close.
How many people spell their name three different ways on legal documents?
I would assume people who want to make it harder to track the paperwork.
each Social Security number gets a different spelling?

Check the link in comment #42, that’s the one I was thinking of.
Just off the top of my head...
