continuing from my previous post, note the following excerpts:
- Kenneth Robert Livingstone (born 17 June 1945)
- Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson (born 19 June 1964)
On perusing the other list of cast/characters in the series, The Crown, I arrive at two who jive:
And so following the leads generates a “June 17, __, 19(x4)/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster. I included a 4th June 19 given that on this day in 2012, is this blogs birthday!!
- Duchess of Windsor (born Bessie Wallis Warfield 19 June 1896 – 24 April 1986)
- Peter Wooldridge Townsend (22 November 1914 – 19 June 1995)
And so bridging the June 18 gap, using the formula ... and taking into consideration the "one off" curve ball we arrive at:
Note from their wiki pages:
- 2000 – Nancy Marchand, American actress (b. 1928)
- 2003 – Larry Doby, American baseball player and manager (b. 1923)
And so the cluster expands; “June 17, 18(x2), 19(x5)/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster. As for Doby's date of birth, December 13 is also the date of my car crash in 2000, the pivotal event that enabled me to become aware of the inner twin world for the first time.
- Nancy Marchand (June 19, 1928 – June 18, 2000)
- Lawrence Eugene Doby(December 13, 1923 – June 18, 2003)

So much can be garnered from the above... many clusters... and many names that speak "cryptic" volumes. Robert May's and Henry Mayhew stand out given that their surname contains my first name, May... and the surname of the Prime Minister of Great Britain is May:

Some other excerpts from the Pea Soup Fog wiki page:
- Theresa Mary May (born 1 October 1956)
Fog Investigation and Dispersal Operation (FIDO) (which was sometimes referred to as "Fog Intense Dispersal Operation" or "Fog, Intense Dispersal Of") was a system used for dispersing fog and pea soup fog (dense smog) from an airfield so that aircraft could land safely. The device was developed by Arthur Hartley
- Arthur Clifford Hartley (7 January 1889 – 28 January 1960)
The Great Smog served as the basis of an episode titled "Forog" of The Goon Show(series 5, episode 13), which aired on 21 December 1954.[25]Investigating the Goon Show cast, one in particular stands out
His birthday, January 20, is one off from my daughters birthday of January 21 and my brothers birthday of January 19. AND, his surname, STARK, speaks straight up volumes. His date of death, October 29, is an addition to the "Timely" pattern-cluster given that today is October 30. Not to mention the above date of death of: Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (24 November 1849 – 29 October 1924) . And then note the following from my previous post:
- Graham William Stark (20 January 1922 – 29 October 2013)
And so we have an "October 29(x3), 30, 31/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster. And so let's investigate October 29... using the formula we arrive at:
- Antony Morgan "Tony" Madigan (4 Feb 1930 – 29 October 2017)
- Dale Evans (Lucille Wood Smith; October 31, 1912 – February 7, 2001)
Note from their wiki pages:
- 1999 – Greg, Belgian author and illustrator (b. 1931)
- 2000 – Carlos Guastavino, Argentinian pianist and composer (b. 1912)
Aside from their birthdays, I can't help butt see the cryptic "car loss" in the name Carlos... expecially meaningful now that the date of my car crash-- December 13th has also cropped up, and yes, the crash did result in my "car loss". And now with their birthdays in mind, note from my previous post:
- Michel Régnier (5 May 1931 – 29 October 1999)
- Carlos Guastavino (April 5, 1912 - October 29, 2000)
And so we now have a "December 5(x2), January 5, __, __, April 5, May 5/ 5th Day, Month Sequence" pattern-cluster. I included January 5 given that this is the birthday of my dog.
- Paul Harvey (September 10, 1882 – December 5, 1955)
- Tom London (August 24, 1889 – December 5, 1963)
