Source Notes

A Sioux City Library newspaper birth announcement gives July 3, 1918. Steinbrecher gives July 3, 1918 with 9:52 AM CWT for Ann and 10:09 AM for Abby. People magazine noted in July 1976 that "the twins were born 17 minutes apart."

Ann Landers gave July 4 in a letter printed in "Celebrity Register." Her daughter in a written interview gave July 4.

Marc Penfield gave 10:09 AM CWT for Abigail Van Buren and 10:00 AM for Ann Landers, as "personal" with July 4 for both.

LMR has a letter in hand from her twin, Abigail Van Landers in which she wrote," July 4, 1918 is the wrong birth date, please do not print the information in "Profiles of Women." Could we have a case in which one twin, Abigail, was born before midnight (on the 3rd) and the other, Ann, after midnight (on the 4th)? This seems unlikely when her daughter reports that her mom was the first born of the girls, by 17 minutes.
