Source Notes
Lescaut gives 10:00 PM "from biography." The only biography that LMR can find is "The Grassmere Journals, 1800-1803," Clarendon Press, Oxford 1991, which has NO reference to ANY birthdata. There is a diary entry for Christmas day that has no reference or implication of it being a birthday. The daily accounts tell a simple story of their days, food, people, animals, headaches, lunch, everyday life.
