<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 6724509, member: 4920&quot;]Fascinating, Evan, I have to say. I just read the Draugas article you linked and see the controversy it creates. Without getting into any merits, I see Wikipedia has Brenner at June 12, 1871 – April 5, 1924, and I’m wondering where they got that vital record from. If there’s a birth certificate, that would be evidence on the issue, but the sources in Wikipedia don’t reference any. Did you consider trying to track one down? I know in those days they actually marked births by events, such as when someone’s barn burned down, and as such are more estimates than actual birth dates. In some cases, that is to say, that’s how they did it. If that’s what happened, here, there of course wouldn’t be any vital record, just a guess, leaving the issue hanging again to speculation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
