Source Notes
Sy Scholfield quotes from "Die Kaisergruft bei den Kapuzinern in Wien" by Cölestin Wolfsgruber (Vienna, 1887), p. 104: "Römischer König Ferdinand IV ... geb. 8. September 1633 ... gegen 2 Uhr fruh. Schönleben, I. c. 282."
Translation: Roman king Ferdinand IV ... born 8 September 1633 ... toward 2 o'clock in the morning. Schönleben, I. c. 282.
Note: the source seems to refer to a book by Johann Ludwig Schönleben which Scholfield has not been able to locate.
