You’re taking TD’s word for it
I don’t doubt the announcement exists on microfilm or microfiche. However, a couple of actual newspapers from the same date as the microfilm, papers that have been authenticated by more than one expert and that DO not show the O announcement but instead show something else, would be pretty damning, no? ;)
There are no paper copies anywhere, unless somebody saved it in their personal memorabilia.
But that doesn’t mean there’s no evidence of foul play.
I’m not taking anyone’s word for anything, I only posted what was written on Atlas Shrugs and TexasDarlin at the time.
It’s simply for the record.
There appears to be some misunderstanding of how birth announcements appeared in 1961. The myth is, they were generated by information from Vital Records.
I, and several other freepers have often suggested that birth announcements are the result of personal. i.e., insertions made and paid for by relatives.
