...have added an alleged birthdate for the subject: Mount Vernon only states the *year* of Augustine Washington's birth here. A National Park Service brochure also only states the *year* of Washington's birth. Unless a published, reliable source states a date & a month for Augustine Washington's birth, it should be left as 1694. Shearonink (talk) 02:34, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Find A Grave is not considered a reliable source for statements of facts in Wikipedia articles.
