Because the death day is the 28th, the program assumed the death year should be 1828 which is incorrect. I have also found strange birth years but I don't have an immediate example.

    Do I need to report the issue of the example in my first post?

    @Rhonda Budvarson

    Do we need to report just one issue per type and per collection?
