Hi, Zigzig20s She is indeed a member of the Ingram family. This article sat in my sandbox too long and I almost forgot about it. Great help from Edwardx, and both of your work on David Ingram. I'll look for her exact birthdate. Best regards to both of you, Eagledj (talk) 13:44, 29 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi Edwardx, You recently reverted my edit when I added a person's date of birth, Sarah LeBrun Ingram, citing WP:primary. As I put in the edit summary, I found the date in US Public Records Index,1950-1993, Vol.1 . It is an exact match of Sarah LeBrun + Owings Mills, Maryland, and was in the range of a reliable secondary source which indirectly gave her birth to plus/minus one year. A birth date is a straightforward descriptive fact. It seems that a date found in a such a source could be used, albeit with care. Giving a date of birth does not does not involve any interpretation. Here is Wiki policy:
Unless restricted by another policy, primary sources that have been reputably published may be used in Wikipedia, but only with care, because it is easy to misuse them.[d] Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation. A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge. For example, an article about a novel may cite passages to describe the plot, but any interpretation needs a secondary source.
