Baillieu Myer

  • ... that Baillieu Myer and his siblings were born in California because their father's prior divorce was not recognised under Australian law? Source: "for twenty-five years [Ken Myer] was ignorant of why he and his siblings were all born in California and not in Australia. [...] 'the American divorce was not recognised ... we would have been regarded as illegitimate if we had been resident in Australia'." [1]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Nice, well-written article and an interesting hook. Article was previously featured in the "In the news" section, but only as a link under "recent deaths" so is still eligible for DYK.   -- Lear's Fool 02:18, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
