Prior to her passing a majority of sources listed 1937, after her passing they listed 1935. The latter appears to be erroneous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.88.29.11 (talk) 02:17, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome to add the alternative date, if supported with WP:RELIABLE sources, to the article, but not remove a well sourced claim for 1935 as a birth date. The persistent changes that ignore the NYTimes source are disruptive. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:29, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Her 1940 census record indicates age 5, ergo birth year of 1935 or 1934. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 05:38, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This obit says "She was 75, according to her husband." So again, birth year of 1935 or 1934.Martinevans123 (talk) 10:51, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
