Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: July 17, 1902 (Babelio; SNAC; FemBio database; Vegetti Catalog of Fantastic Literature; Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; Internet Speculative Fiction Database) or in 1920 (A historical dictionary of British women).

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.
