New mothers - especially very young ones - would not choose to be thousands of miles away from any relatives or supportive people, and to start college immediately? Especially then?
It never made sense to me either. But so much doesn’t. She was supposedly seen there at that time and IIRC there records of some sort from that time, putting her in college there.
How about more evidence of a baby there with her...?
Add to this, it was 1964! Teen mother, mixed race tiny infant, moves across an ocean, two weeks after birth, starts college...In those days, mothers stayed in the hospital for several days.
There are two separate articles that are posted on the long thread of an interview with the babysitter who babysat Jr while Ann was attending class. One was in a gay newspaper and the other was from an Alaskan newspaper sionce the babysitter now lives in Alaska and is involved in some sort of teaching IIRC. Also Ann did NOT leave Seattle in summer of 1962 she was still there into the fall of 1962 because she was visited by a former classmate who had come back to Seattle from Utah and mentioned that she visited shortly before the end of the 1962 World’s Fair. The two mothers talked about babies while Jr played with the other mother’s daughter who was a few days younger than Jr. (sorry her name has slipped my mind and the notepad her name is written in is presently in ID not up here with me)
