Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: September 5, 1728 (SNAC; Encyclopædia Britannica Online) or in 1719 (Encyclopædia Universalis; Deutsche Biographie) or in 1725 (Virtual International Authority File; BnF authorities; Encyclopædia Universalis).

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.
