Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: in 1729 (britannica.com; BnF authorities; Oxford Dictionary of National Biography; commemorative plaque; Structurae; Sapere Encyclopedia; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; National Library of Wales archives and manuscripts catalogue; SNAC; Faceted Application of Subject Terminology; Nationalencyklopedin; bbc.co.uk) or in 1728 (Integrated Authority File).
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.
