    Apparently this source claims he was born about 1778 in Kentucky, but both the 1850 and 1860 census records state that he was born in Indiana.

    The Find A Grave entry claims he was born 1774 in Vincennes, Knox County, Indiana, without providing sources. There are lots of problems with the Vincennes story, which has been questioned by several researchers.
