grand ma and grand pa were her parents in hawaii, remember their daughter was a whacko who hate america and white men, Her parents probably knew this. they had ways to sent messages without phones, small planes, short wave radio, morse code etc. (hell they had phones) and it was Narobi where his grand ma said he was born, they had a population of 250,000 back than, hospitals, remember the british had been there a while so it wasn't a jungle. So I think the british had ways to send messages in 1961, don't you ??? "Perhaps the most famous book and film set in Nairobi, is Out of Africa. The book was written by Karen Blixen (pen name Isak Dinesen), and it is her account of living in Kenya. Karen Blixen lived in the Nairobi Area from 1917 to 1931 (though the neighbourhood in which she lived, Karen, is named after her cousin Karen Melchior)."

Grandma Dunham worked for the Bank of Hawaii----she was a very intelligent woman. So yes I can visualize her calling to get the birth certificate done------. Now that I think about it I may have met Grandma at the Bank------I remember that when I went to open accounts that I was introduced to a woman who was not local or Asian some years older than I---and vaguely recall a conversation in which she and I chatted about her being from the mainland and with the Bank----wonder if I still have those account cards. Being at the bank,certainly she had access to international transmissions-----not the days of advanced computers----but certainly basic communications such as telegrams. This leads to the birth certificate posted on the net-----it was not original----an original copy would have been typed in 1961 at best on an IBM Electric Typewriter------with multiple lines for information about the father, mother, their history and countries etc. That is not what was put on the net-----the copy on the net was at best a computerized document of 2008 without the original information. People who examined that copy on the net claimed that the copy had been photoshopped. mj
