When Sunny was 18, she went to Cornell on a scholarship. It was then that Dr. Montgomery told her this story of her birth. The Blair family never accepted this story, at least they had not by the time of Patrica's book in 1978, calling it "hogwash" according to her report. The Anderson family did accept the story, at least some of them. | When Sunny was 18, she went to Cornell on a scholarship. It was then that Dr. Montgomery told her this story of her birth.

| + | Sunny never met her mother, although she apparently wrote letters that were never answered. Recent research indicates that her mother Maria lived until at least 1925, while Sunny's grandmother Elizabeth had died in 1905. This leaves on the table, the odd question of why her mother, who outlived her own mother by 20 years, did not contact Sunny. Something about the story passed down, doesn't quite ring true. If she was being "held prisoner" this certainly ended by 1905. | ||
