I would have hoped that before they went public with this, they would have obtained another birth certificate from the same area and era for comparison, and that some effort would have been made to verify authenticity.

If you had read the WND article, you would see that they DID compare it to another certificate from the same period and THEY MATCHED. And both were signed by E.F. Lavender!

Let's see.

1) The article doesn't say they compared it to a certificate from the SAME PERIOD. They might have compared with a 1965 document, which would explain why the comparison document had "Republic of Kenya" heading and seal...

2) You say both certificates were signed by E.F. Lavender. That's not correct. The Article only shows a single certificate, two pictures of the same certificate. The article doesn't state who the registrar was for the comparison certificate. No image is provided for the second, comparison certificate.

3) WND needs to provide a picture a comparison document dated before december 12 1964 that has "republic of kenya" heading or seal. If they can't (and I really doubt they can!) then this document is presumably a big fake.

I don’t get the feeling that ‘E.F. Lavender’ is a person but that it is more like a district or registar name..perhaps named after a person back in the day.

Which means that the “E.F. Lavender” signature in no way calls this latest document into question.

And the number: If it weren’t 47044, it would be something else—and somebody could come up with reasons that it COULDN’T be a coincidence.

I’m not convinced this is an “obvious forgery” yet.

“If you had read the WND article, you would see that they DID compare it to another certificate from the same period and THEY MATCHED. And both were signed by E.F. Lavender! “

I went back and reread the entire article. I can’t find the part where it says the comparison birth certificates were signed by Lavender. Am I missing something?

But that can't be true, can it? After all, that can't be a real person's name. Right?
