Look at the link below to the 1961 Natality Report:
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/vsus/vsus_1961_1.pdf
Page 43 lists the states where births occurred distributed according to the state of residence. There were two births recorded in Washington state to Hawaiian residents. Then on this same table, there are 58 births to Hawaiian residents that took place in other states. These states include Washington, California, Colorado, Kentucky, Massachussetts (Harvard), Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, Oregon and South Carolina.
Page 49 gives a table that breaks down the number of births in each state by race. In the “other” category, there are a couple of footnotes that say 366 births occurred to Hawaiians or Part-Hawaiians living in other states. This is pretty good proof that Hawaii registered out of state births, else how they get these statistics??
Also, about all these tables say they don’t include foreign births. IOW, that seems to acknolwedge that states keep track of that information. I saw a table on a different page that lists numbers of births per month, which leads me to believe that by Aug. 4, there had to have been about 500 foreign or out-of-stae births that would have been registered in Hawaii, meaning Obama’s could have been one of those births.
Danke.
But I think you are on weak ground using these tables. Residency information would come from the BC, but the table would not indicate that the state of residence issued the BC. The same is true of race. Hawaiian counted as a "race", still is, but they append "/Pacific Islander" to it. More likely the state where the birth occurred issued it.
But we know that Hawaiian law, territorial (which carried over to the '61 time frame) and after statehood, allowed for registration of births which did not occur in the state.
But if a child was born in say, Washington, they'd have a WA birth certificate and would not need a Hawaiian. But if they were born in Canada, and wanted to be documented as US citizens, they could get a Hawaiian BC.
