Source Notes

Dikki Jo Mullen sends a copy of her funeral card which gives the data. For years, she gave the date publicly of February 22, 1922. The time comes from Marc Penfield who quotes a "personal source" for "just before midnight." Mullen wrote that the time was probably accurate within minutes from what Leek said about Uranus crossing her Ascendent.
