And I see that it says "Race of Child" there whereas the other distinctly says "Race of Father".

Is it possible that the "Doc" only got part of the information for 1961?
FOIA requests can be tricky beasts.

In fact, the 69-71 pdf has both "Race of Child" and "Race of Father".

The "Doc" might want to get his filing fee back, if there was one, as he might have gotten short changed.

Some of the detractors are using the excuse for using the word ‘African’ is that it was ‘Self Reported’ by the parent since he was from Africa and he didn’t want to put down negro or black. I was thinking the other night about this. The actress Charlize Theron is of course ‘white’ born from white parents but she is from South Africa by birth. My question is if she was born in Hawaii would she be listed as a Code 9 since she is also African?

I don't see the race of the mother in this selection, either, so I think this is an incomplete record. Again with regard to the info obtained by The Daily Pen, they reference Part 1, Sections A & B for the coding information.

I think philman_36 is right.
