Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: June 22, 1757 (Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Croatian Encyclopedia; BnF authorities; Find a Grave; Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana; Dictionary of Canadian Biography; SNAC) or June 22, 1750 (Geographicus Rare Antique Maps biographical dictionary of cartographers).
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.
