L Ron Hubbard

Born 13th March 1911 in Tilden, Nebraska, USA.

Parents were Ledora [also 'Fedora' and 'Dora' - sic] May Hubbard (neé Waterbury) and Harry Ross Hubbard

Father, Harry Ross Hubbard, was a Lieutenant when LRH was born and never rose above the rank of Lieutenant-Commander

LRH's grandfather, Lafayette Waterbury, was a frequently cash-strapped veterinarian based primarily in towns (principally Kalispell and Helena, Montana). His largest recorded landholding was of 360 acres in Nebraska.

His great-grandfather's name was Abram ('I.C.' were his grandmother's initials), (2) he was never in the US Navy and (3) nor was LRH's grandfather, Lafayette.

LRH's parents lived into the 1960s and he inherited little or no money from them. Prior to Dianetics and Scientology (i.e. pre-1950) he survived on a combination of money earned from writing pulp fiction, Navy pay and (after the war) Veterans Administration subsistence.

He had no 'family interests' in America or elsewhere. The claim of 'interests' in Southern Africa appears to stem from his belief in the 1960s that he was a reincarnation of the 19th-century diamond magnate Cecil Rhodes.

Not sure if it is true or not--read somewhere that actual birthday is 11 March. Apparently he lied about that too, because the number 13 was somehow mystically significant for him...

13th was correct. But he claimed he was born on a Friday, which was a lie.

MYSTIC - Every Tulpa needs a shell of SOME kind!
