Ross (pictured above) at the Southampton Hospital in New York stumbled upon a ragged old yellow manila envelope marked Jacqueline Bouvier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On the envelope, someone years later had scribbled the words, &#8220;Now Mrs. Jack Kennedy (Mrs. President Kennedy),&#8221; and years after that, a staffer had added, &#8220;Mrs. Jacqueline Onassis.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Inside the manila envelope were birth records of a healthy newborn identified only as &#8220;Baby Girl Bouvier&#8221; having been born at the Southampton Hospital on the evening of July 28, 1929. \u00a0There were four-pages in the handwritten medical file and a one-page typed discharge summary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The said pages described a fourteen (14) day hospital stay, typical at the time, of a &#8220;newborn female Catholic&#8221; weighing in at eight (8) pounds who was &#8220;born healthy, slept well, nursed well&#8221; and received a &#8220;final diagnosis&#8221; of &#8220;normal infancy&#8221; from a &#8220;Dr. Caldwell.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After the 2009 discovery the Southampton Hospital grappled briefly with whether or not it should hold on to the records as essential to the history of the Hamptons or offer them to\u00a0John F.
