Stanley Ann started college in sept 1961 in Seattle right after obama’s birth in august. Her friends there (she graduated from high school in Seattle) saw her there with a baby barack that she didn’t know how to care for yet. One babysat for her while she attended classes.
In those days it was common for a girl in trouble in seattle to go away to one of the two unwed mother’s homes in Vancouver. Stanley Ann probably intended to give her baby up for adoption and then changed her mind. She didn’t realize she was too young to confer American citizenship on her baby. It explains his documentary problems. It’s really occam’s razor, since seattle is the only place mom and newborn Barack were ever seen.
Many thanks for the info; I wonder if ancestry.com has entry data for Vancouver-to-u.s. for august 1961but time frame?
