When I was checking ancestry.com the volunteer from South Australia had made a post back in 2005 I think it was, about one of the other provinces in Australia allowing free online access to older birth records at that time. From that I gathered South Australia didn't allow free access to any such records online, but you apparently can access old ones (1928 and prior I would guess) in libraries. That still wouldn't help with 1959 so we'll have to wait for direct confirmation from the registry office.

I think it's moot now that wnd.com is bailing on the story. To be objective here, they did say this:

“WND was able to obtain other birth certificates from Kenya for purposes of comparison, and the form of the documents appear to be identical” in their article:

Clearly the new one looks nothing like the Bomford original or its clone the Kenyan one. The only plausible excuse I can see for wnd.com is that they got punked as well but just never ran with it. So the perps kept at it and probably tried to bag Berg and then Taitz, and eventually she decided to get brave and smoke out what they were all sitting on to that point.

Thanks for the book ranges through 1973. By my calculation it was averaging 21.5 Books per year from 1928 to 1948, not much higher than 1900-1928. But from 1948 to 1973 the increase was from 646A to 829B, with 44B allegedly being hit in 1959 about 10 or 11 years into that 25 year period. It sounds plausible if there was rapid expansion in the province during the baby boom and even more so in the 60s.

The 5733 Page number still doesn't fit and there are the other issues, so it's still possible Bomford’s was hacked to some extent to hasten this “debunking”.
