While I've not seen a copy of the announcement, I seem to recall hearing
that no
mention was made in said announcement as to where the birth took place.

In the paper, I suppose, one could merely announce that "Mr. and Mrs. XYZ
would
like to announce the birth of a son, 'BongoDrum', on April 1st".

Pretty close to that:

Mr. and Mrs. Barack H. Obama, 6085 Kalanianaoie Hwy., Son, Aug. 4.

From the Sunday Advertiser, Aug. 13, 1961, Pp. B-6, Health Bureau Statistics
(which infers to me that it was not the parents, but the state/county Health
Bureau that sent the information to the paper.
