Source Notes
Sy Scholfield quotes an email from S.C. on 16/11/2014: "Father Philip's 9 July 1545 letter to father Charles reports "midnight" of previous day, 8 July, for Carlos's birth. Informational credit to "Don Carlos of Spain: A Medical Portrait" (1970; p. 3) by Charles Donald O'Malley."
Scholfield notes that various Spanish biographies give "media noche" (midnight). For example, "D. Carlos y Felipe II" by Louis Prosper Gachard (José Juanco y Compañía, 1863), p. 14.
It is not specified whether midnight was at the start or the end of 8 July 1545 so the data is rated C.
