IIRC, there was a document that surfaced a while ago, which (darn my memory, but you’ll remember) appeared to be an application for a birth certificate for 0thugga, with Grandma making the application, and her name was spelled “wrong”, meaning not the way it has always been publicly spelled, with the “y”.
I am sure you’ll remember that document. Some lawyer guy in Ohio or someplace seems to be connected; he may also have signed it? There was discussion that Grandma’s name might have been spelled “wrong” because it was taken over the phone and not written by herself.’
But this alternate name spelling may tie in with that document. Also, (again, IIRC) that document did list 0thugga’s birth place as Kenya.

name of street wrong spelling.
MADELYNE written as MADLYN
and now we see it as MADELINE.
That’s the first thing I thought of (Madelyn or Madeline) while reading the thread and was hoping by now your question (and mine) would’ve been answered. Wasn’t it a BC?
Will check back later.
