  5. The earliest transcriptions of his birthdate say it was March, but the year appears to have been not clearly legible and different compilers have made different assumptions. He could have been born March or May 1667 (less than 9 months after the marriage of his parents), or in March 1668, but was unlikely born as late as 29 May 1668, which was less than 13 months before the birth of his sister.
