In 1922, in the year that Jacqueline L Ein was born, on December 6th, the Irish Free State, a self-governing dominion of the British Empire, was officially proclaimed.

In 1932, by the time she was merely 10 years old, five years to the day after Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic, Amelia Earhart flew solo from Newfoundland to Ireland, the first woman to cross the Atlantic solo and the first to replicate Lindbergh's feat. She flew over 2,000 miles in just under 15 hours.
In 1946, Jacqueline was 24 years old when pediatrician Dr. Benjamin Spock's book "The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care" was published. It sold half a million copies in the first six months.
