Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: May 30, 1824 (SNAC; Find a Grave; Who Named It?) or March 30, 1824 (Gustav Simon (1824-1877) and the development of nephrectomy: the surgeon and his intention).

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.
