Thomas Henry Parry - Date of Birth

Date of Birth

One usually reliable source shows Parry’s date of birth as 21 April 1878, however The Times newspaper in its obituary of Parry reported he was aged 58 at death making his date of birth 1881. This is also the date given in the publication Who was Who. This date seems the more likely as it was reported at the time Parry was adopted as the Liberal candidate for the Flint Burghs, by-election in 1913 that he was aged 32 years. His age at death was also given as 58 years in the Law Journal.

Famous quotes containing the words date and/or birth:

    Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    Not yet the thirtieth year, the thirtieth
    Station where time reverses his light heels
    To run both ways, and makes of forward back;
    Whose long co-ordinates are birth and death....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
