Early life?

This article is (theoretically) a biography, but it begins with its subject's joining the navy. Other than the date/place, there is nothing about his birth, parents, education, etc. Surely at least some of this is known, as his birthdate is. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 02:29, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

@Piledhigheranddeeper: I found information about his parents, but nothing about his life before joining the navy at 14. Apparently he dropped the "de" when enlisting (says a note in the edition of his journals that has nothing about his early life). —Kusma (talk) 17:30, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Well, that's a start! Keep up the good work! --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 18:16, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
