The birth certificate attached immediately below (which I own and have in my personal possession) was issued on August 5, 1937 by the Health Department of the City of Orange (in New Jersey):
The document states that Donald David Muchmore was born on July 31, 1937 in the City of Orange in the County of Essex in the State of New Jersey at the Orange Memorial Hospital.
It appears that, as of some point in the year 2004, Orange Memorial Hospital is no longer a functioning hospital:
The hospital does not appear, from what I’ve read online, to have moved to a different location. The hospital is closed, forever.
The building is probably no longer physically standing and if it is then it is probably slotted for demolition to make way for living units for…’mixed income’ families.
At the foot of this report please find comparison photographs of the Orange Memorial Hospital from the years 1907 (black and white) and 2007 (color).
Featured in the picture immediately below is a glass case wall display which once neatly housed hospital-related photographs, documents and newspaper articles.
How could the hospital staff or admin leave behind these photographs and documents? Did they also leave behind birth certificates of, among other persons, future US Presidents?
Some somewhat interesting elements and aspects of Donald David Muchmore’s 1937 certificate of birth are noted below:
1. The document was issued by a city health department (i.e., Health Department of the City of Orange) as opposed to a state health department.
2. The document was filled out using a typewriter.
3. The document requests and provides the residence of the both the father – Eugene Russel Muchmore (563 Thomas St., Orange, N.J.) and the mother – Marie Mildred McMane (563 Thomas St., Orange, N.J.). The father’s occupation is listed as “Painter” and the mother’s occupation is listed as “Housewife”.
4. The documents contains a segment which states, “What preventive for Ophthalmia Neonatorum was used?” Answer was listed as: Argyrol 25%. (Ophthalmia Neonatorum is probably more commonly known as Neonatal Conjunctivitis which is a form of conjunctivitis contracted by newborns during delivery.)
5. The document contains an embossed seal (lower left hand corner of document) from the Registrar of Vital Statistics, W. M. Brien who is also a medical doctor. The document also contains the signature (which may, possibly?, be a stamped-signature) of W. M. Brien.
6. The document provides the Name of Attendant (doctor) who’s name is listed as Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller.
Dr. Lieutenant Colonel Robert Farris Loughmiller died September 22, 1959 at his home in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma following a heart attack. He had lived in Oklahoma City all his life except one year when he interned at Orange Memorial Hospital in New Jersey and six years 1938-1944 as a flight surgeon with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
Dr. James Oyunga William Ang’awa, who delivered baby Barack Hussein Obama II, worked for four (4) years at the Port Reitz Chest Hospital in Mombasa Kenya until some point in 1961 (sometime before May 18, 1961) when he transferred to the South Hill Extension of the King George VI Hospital in Nairobi Kenya (see May 18, 1961. University of Notre Dame Document Delivery (11.10.2009). East Africa and Rhodesia. Volume 37, page 995). At some point within the year 1961 Dr. James Oyunga William Ang’awa delivered baby Barack Hussein Obama II at the Coast Province General Hospital in Mombasa.
Both doctors appear to have worked for relatively short periods of time at hospitals (i.e., Orange Memorial Hospital and Coast Province General Hospital) which, other than on birth certificates in which these doctors’ names are listed as attending doctors, left no record or references (no records or references that can be found online) of their employment at the said hospitals.
The only online reference of Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller having ever worked at Orange Memorial Hospital in New Jersey is a gravestone and cursory memorial at Findagrave.com:
Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller “was a 1930 graduate of Central Highschool, and a 1933 graduate of the University of Oklahoma. He earned his BS and MD degrees from OU in 1937. He specialized in eye, ear, nose and throat work. A member of the American Board of Ophthalmology [branch of medicine that deals with the anatomy, physiology and diseases of the eye] and Otolaryngology [medical specialty concerned especially with the ear, nose, and throat (head and neck)], the Osler Medical Society, the Optimist Club and the Phi Kappa Psi.”
Skeptics have indicated that Dr. James Oyunga William Ang’awa was a tuberculosis doctor and, in being a tuberculosis doctor, he wouldn’t have been delivering babies.
If the skeptics are correct then why did Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller (a doctor who “specialized in eye, ear, nose and throat work”) deliver baby boy Donald David Muchmore?
If the skeptics are correct then why are there no online references and records, aside from a Gravestone.com memorial created in January 2009 (approximately 50 years after his death and 72 years after he worked at Orange Memorial Hospital), of Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller working at Orange Memorial Hospital in New Jersey?
One last captivating and thought-provoking question:
What did Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller do from the year 1944 thru 1959? He was born in December 1912 so in the year 1944 he would have been 31 or 32 years of age. It doesn’t seem like a doctor would retire at age 32. He died at 46 years of age (almost 47). What did Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller do from age 32 to 46?
Answer:
A guess is that he suffered from a war injury (WWII) and could no longer work. However, I suspect that we will never know because not everything is on the internet.
Here are the final photographs (Orange Memorial Hospital) of today’s report:
Sometimes after publishing a report, here at the WOBIK blog, containing identity documents of the deceased such as passports, birth certificates, military records and suchlike, I am subsequently contacted by surviving family and sometimes friends.
Typically the surviving family (or friends) are delighted and thrilled to read about their family here on the WOBIK blog.
At request of such surviving family and friends I will turn over, to them, (by and through postal mail or FedEx) any or all passports, birth certificates, military records and suchlike.

A bit of trivia regarding Dr. James Oyunga William Ang’awa, the attending doctor shown on the ‘Lucas Daniel Smith, Obama Kenyan Birth Certificate’:
http://wasobamaborninkenya.com/1961%20Kenyan%20Birth%20Certificate%20of%20Barack%20Hussein%20Obama%20II,%20Copy.pdf
As recorded in the London Gazette on 1/11/2011, Dr. Ang’awa was proclaimed by Queen Elizabeth II to be a ‘Serving Brother’ in the ‘Venerable Order of Saint John’
(See the 15th name up from the bottom on page 332 in the 2nd, below cited link)
http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/43871/pages/331/page.pdf
http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/43871/pages/332/page.pdf
This was a significant honor for Dr. Ang’awa. The Wikipedia description of the Venerable Order of Saint John can be viewed at the following link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venerable_Order_of_Saint_John
Excerpt:
The Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem (French: L’Ordre très vénérable de l’hôpital de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem), also referred to as the Order of St. John, is a royal order of chivalry established in 1831 and found today throughout the Commonwealth of Nations, Hong Kong, Ireland, and the United States of America, with the world-wide mission “to prevent and relieve sickness and injury, and to act to enhance the health and well-being of people anywhere in the world.”
“… act to enhance the health and well-being of people anywhere in the world.” Hmmmmm!
I guess that means that he was the kind of physician who would break his normal routine and deliver a baby to an 18-year-old American girl from Hawaii named Ann Dunham Obama, at the Coast Province General Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya on August 4, 1961.
INTERESTING DETAILS REGARDING THE CLOSING OF ‘ORANGE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL’ IN JANUARY 2004

Hospitals: Portrait of a failure
The closing of an inner-city hospital creates problems for doctors as well as patients.
Medical Economics
Ken Terry
6/3/2005
Excerpt:
The 95-year-old patient had multiple problems, including congestive heart failure, COPD, asthma, arthritis, and hardening of the arteries. In February, her CHF worsened and she had to be admitted. At one time, internist Joseph Salese of Orange, NJ, would have sent her to the nearby Hospital Center at Orange. But that hospital, located in a poor urban community next to Newark, had been closed for more than a year. So he had her taken to St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, about 5 miles away.
St. Barnabas is a suburban hospital with an excellent reputation. But on this particular day during flu season, beset by extra patients from Orange, St. Barnabas had no room for Salese’s patient. So the ambulance had to transport her to Chilton Memorial Hospital in Pompton Plains, some 20 miles distant. Fortunately, this time, the patient survived.
The closing of the 290-bed Hospital Center at Orange (HCO) in January 2004 is not unlike the fate of many “safety net” hospitals in urban centers throughout the country. And when these facilities close, it’s not just the poor who rely on them who suffer. So do the physicians who serve the community.
Salese and his two partners, for example, have seen a significant increase in visits from the uninsured—patients who would ordinarily have gone to the ED at Orange. The physicians do what they can, but they have to stay in business. “How much charity care can you give? At the end of the day, who’s going to pay for the expenses?” asks Salese.
Here’s a close-up look at the impact of the closing of just one safety-net hospital.
Patients remain loyal to a declining facility The Hospital Center at Orange (also known as Orange Memorial Hospital) opened its doors in 1873. It was held in great esteem by the community. In fact, notes internist Alapatt F. Thomas of Irvington, “people in the area couldn’t accept the idea that the hospital was going to close. I remember one of the last patients I sent to Orange Memorial—an accountant. He was having an MI, and that’s where he wanted to go.”
That was slightly risky at the time, acknowledges Thomas. Toward the end, he and other physicians were less willing to admit patients to HCO, “because they weren’t going to get the care they needed.” Doctors, nurses, and other support staff were switching to other hospitals as they saw the end approaching. The aging hospital also needed urgent repairs and a complete renovation. In 2002, the state health department had briefly shut down the OR suite, citing poor plant maintenance, infection control, and sanitation, “particularly of instruments.”
Was the white knight really Darth Vader? In the early ’90s, the state repealed a hospital rate-setting law. That repeal, plus the ravages of managed care, knocked many New Jersey hospitals against the ropes and kayoed some of them. In 1998, HCO was on the verge of bankruptcy when a white knight came to its rescue.
That white knight was the Cathedral Healthcare System, which owned three hospitals in Newark. Operated by the Catholic archdiocese of Newark, Cathedral agreed to provide back-office and management services to HCO for a fee. But, says Terence French, the system’s executive vice president, Cathedral didn’t buy out the facility or take on its liabilities. It was the HCO board, not Cathedral, that made the decision to shut down the hospital, he says.
But the hospital’s last chief of staff, FP Yash Khanna, says that Cathedral did control HCO. A spokesperson for the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services agrees. Some physicians in the community think Cathedral, which also bought and then closed nearby Montclair Community Hospital in 1999, may have planned HCO’s closing in advance to benefit its other hospitals.
“Cathedral takes these places, extracts the valuable services, and then closes them down to eliminate competition,” says FP Edwin Lee McCampbell of East Orange. “We had a really good orthopedics department at Orange Memorial, and that was moved lock, stock, and barrel to St. Michael’s Medical Center [another Cathedral hospital].” (Cathedral denies that it happened this way.)
Federal and state cutbacks doom HCO Cathedral’s Terence French denies that the healthcare system planned to shut down HCO; what doomed the plan, he says, were cutbacks in federal and state aid.
The first blow came in June 2003, when CMS cut “outlier” payments to hospitals with unusually long lengths of stay. As a result, HCO received $14 million less from Medicare in 2003 than it had the year before. Then the state of New Jersey began cutting its reimbursement for charity care. The state paid the hospital only $475,000 for indigent care in 2003, leaving about $3 million worth of services unfunded. The $17 million in federal and state cuts amounted to about 25 percent of HCO’s annual operating budget.
There were large and vociferous community protests against the closing of HCO, and a group of about 45 doctors looked into taking over the facility. They planned to achieve $19 million in savings by reducing patient length of stay, corporate overhead, and staffing. But the hospital still would have lost $12.6 million over three years, and Cathedral didn’t want to cover those losses.
In January 2004, HCO closed down everything but its emergency department, laying off 800 people. But the state hadn’t yet given its permission for the closure, so it fined HCO for jumping the gun. Under a consent order entered April 8, 2004, HCO agreed to put up $1 million for the operation of a temporary primary care clinic on the grounds of St. Mary’s Life Center, a nursing home (and former hospital) that is across the street from HCO. It promised to keep its ED open for a few months until that clinic was operational and to contribute $500,000 toward the building of a permanent community clinic in Orange.
Physicians are concerned for their patients Local physicians have had to switch to other hospitals. For the most part, their patients are getting good care in those facilities, and none is more than a 20-minute drive from the physicians’ offices. But, to listen to the doctors tell the story of HCO’s closing, you’d think they’d witnessed a mass murder.
“It’s been terrible, and that’s all I can say,” says internist Ratan Mirchandani, who used to admit 80 percent of his hospital patients to HCO. Pediatrician Curtis Johnson says the death of Orange Memorial was “like a family member being stabbed in the heart.”
But Ian McFadden, former president of East Orange General Hospital, just 1.5 miles away from HCO, doesn’t believe that HCO’s closing has torn the safety net. A “substantial” portion of his hospital’s volume—patient census has risen 40 percent in the past year—now comes from Orange, he notes, and the hospital’s ED and family health center also serve Orange patients. “We’ve always taken all comers, so I don’t think there’s been a void in terms of the safety net.”
Terence French of Cathedral Healthcare System agrees. Since HCO was attracting only 9 percent of the patients in its service area, he says, it’s been relatively easy for the other hospitals to absorb the overflow. In fact, two of Cathedral’s hospitals haven’t seen as many extra patients as they expected, he says.
Front-line physicians view things differently. Joseph Salese blames HCO’s closing for the lack of available beds at St. Barnabas on some days. And Alapatt Thomas says that, over the past year, he and his colleagues have noticed more overcrowding at area hospitals.
At Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, he says, the average length of stay in the ED ranges from 24 to 36 hours. “There’s a backup in the EDs,” says McCampbell. “Sometimes even if you’re admitted, these hospitals are having people wait two or three days in the ED because there are no beds. I’ve had people who left. They were admitted, but never made it to the floor.”

I entered the below-linked post on the InspectorSmith Forum in the sub-forum, The ‘Lucas Daniel Smith, Obama Kenyan Birth Certificate’ is AUTHENTIC, Compilation of Support Data’ under the title –
http://www.wasobamaborninkenya.com/InspectorSmith/showthread.php/6012-Is-EVERTHING-online-Do-TUBERCULOSIS-doctors-like-Dr-James-Ang-awa-deliver-BABIES
If the skeptics are correct then why did Dr. Robert F. Loughmiller (a doctor who “specialized in eye, ear, nose and throat work”) deliver baby boy Donald David Muchmore?
and your conclusion is that since a non-obstetrician delivered a baby then all non-obstetricians, including Ang’awa, deliver babies. Don’t you see the fundamental flaw behind your reasoning ? Try set theory.
Group A – all non-gynecology and non-obstetrics doctors
Group B – doctors who deliver babies
Overlap B u A members of Group A who deliver babies (Loughmiller)
where is Ang’awa ? Is he necessarely in the overlap ?
Based upon your essay, statistically the correct answer is the opposite: there are far more chances of Ang’awa belonging to Group A only (probability) then there are for him belonging to both groups (minoritarian possibility)
To better define these groups and how they overlap here is what is missing:
percenteage of non specialist doctors who deliver babies. So I suggest you conduct a statistical measurement of which doctors deliver babies in order to obtain a significative result. A one case study is not acceptable and does not allow any conclusion
