And I'm thinking that for the death certificate to be issued in the name of Tomiyo, the birth certificate had been raised in that name already.
Could that be why the amendement to the name Virginia wasn't made until two weeks later...when they gave her a certificate number 400+ beyond her birth date?
If that birth certificate existed in the name of Tomiyo Sunahara, and it was raised on the day of her birth, (which would have made her number very close to the forgery we are familiar with...) what happened to that entry? Is it blank? Or does it say OBADO DUPLICATE MAE?
151 - 61 - 10611 Mean Absolute Error.
The death certificate HAD to be issued by day three. So, as the family had not settled on a name by day three, it was issued in Tomiyo. I think the BC must be issued by ten days, whether the child lives or not, but I need to double check that.
I don’t know that the BC WOULD be issued in Tomiyos name - they had used his name because the time frame for processing the DC was so brief by law. As far as I know the BC first name field could have been left open, or perhaps had “Baby Girl” there since the family had planned on naming her, and likely indicated so to the hospital staff who assisted with the completion of the paperwork.
