Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: January 18, 1867 (Find a Grave; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; SNAC; Vegetti Catalog of Fantastic Literature; Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; BnF authorities; The Fine Art Archive; todotango.com; Internet Speculative Fiction Database) or in 1869 (Library of the World's Best Literature).
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.
