Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: in 1645 (Sapere Encyclopedia; biografiasyvidas.com; Prabook) or in 1642 (Annals of the American Pulpit).

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.
