Date of birth/death
[edit]I cannot see all of this source, which apparently verifies his date of birth as being 1835. I can see all of this one, which says he was active with Babbar Akali supporters in the 1920s. There is something wrong here, surely? I've removed the Babbar Akali info for now but note also that the Dawn article is actually taken from scroll.in, which we do not usually consider to be reliable.
Sorting out his date of birth and of death is also significant in relation to our terminology: the British Raj came into being after the 1857 rebellion and prior to that the country was governed by the East India Company. We need to sort it out but I'm not finding many sources about the guy in any shape or form.
For what it is worth, the only Captain Coll I can find is this one, who was active in Punjab in the 1840s. But that is getting into the realms of synthesis. This source, on the other hand, says Lohar was c. 1900. - Sitush (talk) 13:09, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
