==Lucius Fisher Foster== Lucius Fisher Foster III was born about 1922/3 in Colorado (possibly in Denver), the son of Lucius Foster and his wife Constance Richardson. [http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3041169&id=I0162 This entry] in the Ancestry World Tree claims his parents married in Denver. His mother remarried in 1928/9 to Leslie B Irwin, an investment securities salesman. Robert Battle states that Leslie's middle name was "Bessel". An article in the magazine ''She Australia'' [http://www.geocities.com/jodiefosterph/she050198.html excepted here] states that "Lt Col Lucius Fisher Foster III, [was] a former [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Britain Battle of Britain] fighter (this battle fought 10 July 1940 – 31 October 1940), and one of the most highly decorated fliers in the US airforce." This last fact is doubtful and needs firm evidence. Such an event would have been widely published and I'm just not finding that. Jodie Foster is quoted in that article stating that she has only met her father about three times. In 1946, "Lucius Fisher Foster" is shown in the Voter's Registration living at the same Los Angeles address as his mother Constance. In October 1952, Lucius was living in Boise, Idado since he gave this as his home address when he was then returning from Manila. This might have been where he was living, when [http://www.geocities.com/jodiefosterph/us050800.html this article] states that Lucius "...already had three kids from a previous marriage. In 1954, he met a pretty young woman named Evelyn "Brandy" Almond at a fencing club and married her impetuously during a trip to Tijuana, Mexico." Lucius and Brandy lived in Los Angeles where they had four children, the youngest of whom was the actress Jodie Foster. They divorced and they each married and divorced other people in the Los Angles area. Buddy Foster states that Lucius and Brandy had split up in 1959, and that Jodie was conceived when their mother went to Lucius to plead for child-support money. Buddy's alledges that Lucius demanded sex for the payment and that is how Jodie was conceived in 1962. Lucius and Brandy's four children, all born in Los Angeles County are: #Lucinda Courtney "Cindy" Foster born 26 Oct 1954 #Constance Elizabeth Foster born 30 Oct 1955 #Lucius F "Buddy" Foster born 12 Jul 1957 #Alicia C "Jody" Foster born 19 Nov 1962 When Buddy Foster's book on his sister was released, ''Entertainment Weekly'' did a review dated 1997, in part stating that Lucius was then living, aged 75. Lucius was apparently yet living as late as 2003, when his name appears online in a few comments that he evidently posted to various forums. ===Primary Sources for 2=== *[http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&db=1930usfedcen%2c&rank=0&gsfn=Lucius&gsln=Foster&sx=&gs1co=1%2cAll+Countries&gs1pl=1%2c+&year=&yearend=&sbo=0&sbor=&ufr=0&wp=4%3b_80000002%3b_80000003&srchb=r&prox=1&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&o_iid=21416&o_lid=21416&pcat=35&fh=1&recid=6593144&recoff=1+3 1930 Census of Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California] showing : "Leslie B Irvin 30, married first at 29, IL/IL/IL, Salesman, Investment Securities; Constance R Irvin 27, married first at 17, TN/TN/VA; Courteney Foster, step-daughter, 8, CO; Lucius F Foster Jr 7 stepson CO" *[http://www.littlefriends.co.uk/4thfg.php 8th Air Force Fighter Group] : "41-6186 P-47C 334 QP- Crash-landed 29 Jan 1943 - Lt.
