Date of birth

[edit]

Date of birth is listed at 1935 at the top of the article. At the bottom it shows Categories: 1925 births. 74.38.235.231 (talk) 18:57, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I'll fix it. I think there was some discrepancy among the sources. Valfontis (talk) 20:19, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

From article: "After her passing it was reported in major media that she had been born on June 1, 1935, but her relatives and public records confirm the earlier date of June 1, 1925." The public records include the 1930 census which states that Hazel was then 5 years old. As of 2016, the Library of Congress Authority File record for Dickens shows her birth year as 1925. Photographs of her gravesite also show her birth date as 1925. NOLA1982 (talk) 01:11, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
