My knowledge of the fact and date of such Birth is based on the following Circumstances:

I am his older sister. Our family always celebrated his birthday on 17 June. We were living in Glace Bay when he was born. The baptismal record in the church (St. Mary's In Glace Bay) indicates the date of birth. His school record where he first entered school indicates place and data of birth.
