↑ The birthdate of 22 Aug 1770 is given in several secondary sources (some cited) but its basis is unknown. A death on 1 Sep, equivalent to 32 Aug, minus 9 days, suggests 23 Aug. It is unknown if 22 Aug is the result of a different calculation paradigm (e.g., some simply assume every month is 30 days), or if there is an actual basis for 22 Aug as the birthdate.
