From reading 4th edition of the registry, it seems that Harry S and Peter Rothschild were the original owners. So at the time of the 4th editition registry you did not believe that Ann was the original owner as stated in Lance Coren's letter.
I have provided copies of Ann Abiden's registration renewal for CSX 2049 from 1964. They reflect the same data Coren discovered in the DMV files. And post #44 discusses the how's and why's of the odd data that was submitted for the 2049 footnote in the 4th edition of the Registry. We have since corrected the misinformation.
