Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: October 2, 1718 (Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Montagu, Elizabeth (DNB00)) or in 1720 (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.
