Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: December 10, 1805 (BnF authorities; global.britannica.com; Find a Grave; Garrison, William Lloyd (10 December 1805–24 May 1879), editor, abolitionist leader, and religious reformer; SNAC; Encyclopædia Britannica Online) or December 12, 1805 (Find a Grave).
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.
