It was rumored that the original birth certificate was a different month and name that she was raised to believe. When Susie was old enough and already married to George. She went and had the name she knew and grew up with to be hers and the birthdate changed legally. This is where the "Sophia" and Susie names are confused.so what we know to be the posted birthdate and name is what she changed it to be...it was Rumored that the name she was given at birth was "Sophia"..we are guessing her parents always called her "Susie".
