PCC will transcript (ie the TNA copy) states the date of death to be 26th Nov 1802 (sworn by the widow in August 1803).
Transcript of the PR's gives the burial date as 20th March 1803!!!
Which is more likely to be right?
Yes, I know, I could at least check the PR date with the original.....This thread isn't really to get an answer to the Q, but to get us thinking about how often secondary sources are incorrect!
