The different spellings of Madeline/etc are very strange. The infant thing - it would be useful to see other like documents from that time, from the same office, to see if “infant” was used only for babies or for older children.

Forget the Infant issue--as late as the 1960's, it was common to read legal document references to a person as old as 17 as an "infant". Offshore legal, even more common in the Napoleonic Code regions.

As to the Madelyn spellings, you assume she didn't write the ones where it is spelled differently--she certainly didn't write the application for the Certificate in Hawaii. And government clerks who fill stuff in spell things in lots of ways and don't worry about it.

That said, the form of the certificate is in fact troubling--absence of a state form reference for the document is unusual. However stupid you may assume the government employees to be, reversing the city and county is also out of line for someone who would have completed a bunch of these documents.

Did St Francis have a hospital at which the birth could have occurred in 1942 in Wichita?

Even if yes, it still causes you to wonder if this is maybe a fake.

The legend has Madelyn and Stanley getting married when she was in high school and not telling her parents. So the marriage, if one happened, could have been anywhere.

You think that she called it in while she was in HI and SADO was in Kenya?
