Orange ref - that we should not simply zap it, but instead give both sides, via some sort of "..as widely believed, but in fact looks pretty shaky" explanation. - Snori (talk) 12:50, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
Birth Date
[edit]His original baptism register lists his birth date as 25-Sep-1792 and baptised on 09-Jan-1793 (Parents Samuel Hobson and Martha Jones). His birth date on this article is listed as the 26th. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.101.235.115 (talk) 16:57, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
