Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: July 21, 1816 (Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana; Roglo; Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; Find a Grave; SNAC; Integrated Authority File) or July 21, 1821 (Biographisches Jahrbuch und Deutscher Nekrolog).
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.
