Conflicting birthdates edit

Latest comment: 10 months ago3 comments2 people in discussion

We apparently have 1566 as the given birthdate for Cocks in one section of the article but a baptism is cited in a later paragraph the year before he was born. Voices of Early Modern Japan corroborates 1566 as the birthdate but I can't verify this baptism information. 9forMortalMen (talk) 04:23, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

It still stands. Shouldn't his birth certificate be available in some church ledger? Kumabjorn (talk) 22:47, 20 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Update: obtained access to the Oxford article, trying to source the claims to a primary document. 9forMortalMen (talk) 04:35, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
