Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: June 15, 1835 (Integrated Authority File; SNAC; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Find a Grave; FemBio database; History of the American Stage; BnF authorities) or in 1841 (Artists of the World Online).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
