Matryona was born in 1881 not 1885 , please see russsian and german wiki(J.Moiseev)

1881 is the date given by the Pokrov Monastery on their website: http://www.pokrov-monastir.ru/?include=static&page_id=78 What is the basis for 1885?--Paul Pieniezny (talk) 01:41, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that some Russian sources claim that her birth was in 1885, but 22 November 1881 is the officially recognized date, http://svyatmatrona.ru/o-svyatoj-matrone-moskovskoj/ briefly mentions that some people think she was born in 1885 without any specific details 77.34.16.108 (talk) 13:03, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
