Hello, thanks for the message and welcome to wikipedia. I have corrected the birthdate in the piece, thanks to the good link you attached. Much appreciated. Those diaries are very interesting, but unfortunately, as there is no way to substantiate them (no independent, verifiable source), they constitute what wikipedia calls Original Research. However, if they are put online in a manner where they can be viewed, or even online in a textual form (transcription), then we can use them. It's great that you have them, or have access to them. Fascinating stuff, and a window into what life was like at an earlier time in our history. Thanks again for the message. Best regards, MarmadukePercy (talk) 23:29, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
