Talk:Sabina Higgins

Latest comment: 4 years ago by Verbcatcher in topic Date of birth

Hi. This article (and the one about her spouse) refers to Saina Coyne as an actress but gives no information about any acting career. Does this mean she is involved in amateur dramatics only? 78.17.64.218 (talk) 06:35, 17 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Date of birth

edit

We currently give Sabina Higgins's date of birth as 7 May 1944, without citing a source. An IP editor changed this to 15 September 1941, but was reverted.

I have not yet found a reliable source. Our Irish Times source[1] says:

  • Sabina Coyne met Michael Daniel Higgins in 1969 at a party in the home of journalist Mary Kenny, when he was 28 and she was 27.

This means that she was born in 1941 or 1942, and 15 September 1941 may well be correct. Can we find a reliable source? Verbcatcher (talk) 23:09, 4 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have changed her date of birth to '1941 or 1942'. Verbcatcher (talk) 07:29, 18 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
