Talk:Hank Mann

Year of Birth
Most online biographies have birth year as 1887 - however no primary sources are given.


 * 1920 U.S. Census has estimated birth year as 1888
 * 1930 U.S. Census has estimated birth year as 1889
 * 1942 World War II Draft Registration Card states 1888. [This is written(?) and signed by the man himself.]
 * Social Security Death Index states 1887. [Date presumably provided by next of kin?]
 * Photo of Hollywood Forever Cemetery nameplate at FindAGrave shows 1887 [Again, date presumably provided by next of kin?]

Q. So which is it?

I've gone for 1888 as Draft Registration Card has Mann's signature on it. JustWinBaby (talk) 18:56, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
