Source Notes

Sy Scholfield quotes from Wikipedia:

"Sophie Polyxena Concordia was born in Berlin on 28 May 1709..." [1].

Reference: "See Archives of the princes of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein, Wittgenstein Castle, Laasphe, notification dated Berlin 8‑6‑1709: «am 28ten Maii abends um 9 Uhr». The mother died on 4 June and the child was baptised on 11 June «à la maison» (baptismal register of Berlin Cathedral), which proves that the birth took place in Berlin."

The English translation of "am 28ten Maii abends um 9 Uhr" is "on May 28th at 9 p.m."
