Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: February 5, 1868 (BnF authorities) or January 11, 1867 (Ford, Hugh (11 January 1867–29 December 1942), director and producer for theater and films).

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.
