Talk:Charles A. May

Birthdate?
The NYT obituary says Aug. 9, 1818, but the reference is not directly from the NYT, but a genealogical site, so it may be suspect (e.g. it may have been copied into text by hand or OCR, either of which is prone to error). The Freemasons directory says Aug. 9, 1817.

The "Heroes of the War of 1812" book says 1812.... This is the only source I've found so far that is an original document which gives his birth year. The NYT obituary and Freemason directory were both copied, probably by OCR, which could conceivably mistake a "2" for a "7" or an "8". Strikehold (talk) 23:40, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
