Birth/death date discrepancies
[edit]The article states that Gazzam was born May 7, 1803 and died January 19, 1878. Some sources agree, but others, such as his grave inscription[1] and The Twentieth Century Bench and Bar of Pennsylvania, say he was born May 4, 1803 and died February 19, 1878. His obit in The Philadelphia Inquirer was published on February 22, 1878 (a Friday) and states that he died "Tuesday last" (i.e., February 19), so the February death date is very probably the correct one. --Phleg1 (talk) 06:07, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
