Birth date and place
editThere are conflicting sources for his birth date.
- Evidence for 1886 The book Romolo Ferrari e la chitarra in Italia nella prima metà del Novecento says that he was born in 1886 at S. Ferdinando di Puglia. A 1946 news article from the Brooklyn Daily Eagle also reports the 1886 birth date in San Ferdinando di Puglia. That latter article has at least one suspect fact; it says he lived in the United States starting 1912, when immigration documents and newspaper advertisements make it clear he was here earlier.
- Evidence for 1881 The 1920 census, the 1940 census , his 1918 registration for the draft, the application for U.S. citizenship and the social security death index point to a birth date of 1881 in Foggia. Also the 1951 copyright book lists his birth date as 1881. And a news clipping from March 1951 talked about his then upcoming 70th birthday, on March 31, 1951. I decided to use 1881 as those documents were ones that he had some involvement with (especially immigration and draft documents).Jacqke (talk) 03:38, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Jacqke: Good catch. Where sources differ, you might add a footnote to explain this. For example, see Lynsey de Paul. Note also that I have reviewed your DYK. It seems good to go but more copy-editing is needed. I'll perhaps do some myself when I get a moment but that will have to do for now. Andrew D. (talk) 18:21, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
