Dukes, Dykes and Dams

Note the following info regarding two notable persons recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2020 site;  

• Madieng Khary Dieng (21 November 1932 – 27 November 2020) 88, Minister of the Interior 
• Sergei Shmonin (24 November 1968 – 23 November 2020)51, football player 

 First of all, both were born and died in November, secondly, their birthdays and anniversary of death occur in less than a week from each other.  This is a definite twin heads upp, the above dates generating a “November 21, __, 23(x2), 24, ..., 27”Date Sequence” pattern cluster... I included a second November 23– my mothers birthday.  We are being prompted to bridge the November 22nd gap, and to do so we need to visit the days wikipedia page, and instead of using the formula as per usual, we need to follow the format as per the pattern cluster mentioned in my previous post re: 

• “First and Last Names Beginning With The Same Letter” pattern cluster

As you can see, Sergei Shmonin is an addition to the cluster.  See the list at bottom of page re notable persons born or died on November 22 whose first and last names begin with the same letter.  From the group there are only two women, and note from their wiki pages: 

• Abigail Adams (November 22, 1744 – October 28, 1818)American wife of John Adams, 2nd First Lady of the United States 
• Doris Duke  (November 22, 1912 – October 28, 1993)American art collector and philanthropist  

Not only were they born on the same day, they died on the same day!!  What are the chances of THAT?!  

As well, her husband John Adams is featured in this blogs Header: 

On July 4th, 3 Of the first "5" US Presidents had died: Jefferson "5" hours before Adams, and Monroe "5" years later on the "55th" Independence Day. 

The surname Adams is an addition to the “Remove a Letter Makes a Word” pattern cluster... as in remove the “A” makes “dams”, a word that connects with the “Dykes” (aka Dikes) in my previous post!!  Note as well, the cryptic elements in their names re “a big ail (Abigail) dams” and “door is/do rise duke (as in “fight/put up your dukes”).   Note the following info regarding John Adams: 

John Adams (October 30, 1735– July 4, 1826) 

We now have an “October 28(x2), __, 30/ Date Sequence” pattern cluster.
