Problem is she wasn't his mother, she didn't show up in Hawaii with a toddler until 1963 after she changed her name with Social Security from Stanley Ann Dunham to Ann Dunham Obama. She was his nanny. Her function was to get the boy out of the US and to Indonesia, where his father, a married radical coloured man with children and a reputation to protect, had powerful friends. He said it himself at an early interview. He went to Indonesia when he was TWO. He was returned to Hawaii on his own when Sukarno was deposed.

“...1963 after she changed her name with Social Security from Stanley Ann Dunham to Ann Dunham Obama...”
In 1961 she was 19, in 1963 she was 21.
If someone is 21 or over, it takes a court order to do a name change.
If under 21, one could go with their parents and file at the county records; no court paperwork (my mom did that, when she was under 21).
I wonder what supporting documents Stanley Ann used, when she went to court to do the name change.
I’m looking for that soc sec form someone posted, showing the name change.
