Death date?

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

On what authority is the current death date of 9 November (NS) 1795 given? The Russian Wikipedia article, which btw provides a far more extensive bibliography, gives the quite different date of 10 September. Alfietucker (talk) 17:20, 1 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Just realised what happened. Somebody has misread 11.9.1795 to be 9 November, whereas in fact it's 11 September. Will correct this accordingly. Alfietucker (talk) 17:26, 1 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

A page that knows where it met you.
