Accuracy of date of birth is disputed

It seems that User:RossRSmith has some doubts over the accuracy of the date of birth. see http://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/2016-06-02/the-curious-case-of-bill-ahern The-Pope (talk) 12:45, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Doubts ? I don't have doubts - the date of birth for the 1897 player is wrong ! William J Ahern born 1873 [registered in North Melbourne district with number 18090] to parents Jeremiah and Kate (nee Biddle), died in New South Wales in 1881 at age 8 years [registered in the Sydney district with number 312] with parents named as Jeremiah and Kate.
