Leroy Hodges

The source given in the article gives his date of birth as October 17, 1950. If you have different information, you need to show a reliable source, and raise it on the article talk page. Ghmyrtle (talk) 19:27, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

He is a friend of mine. My source is LeRoy. Theluckyone63 (talk) 20:06, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Normally we would rely on published sources, and all the sources I've seen give the 1950 date - probably because they got it from our article! The book by Eagle and LeBlanc is usually very reliable on these matters. But, I think there is plenty of circumstantial evidence that supports what you say - in particular, that Leroy is the older of the brothers, not the youngest. So, I've changed the article back to your version, with a note on the talk page. Thanks again for your help on this. Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:24, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
