Birth date

- As this appears to come from a member of Mr Maresca's family, I have modified the article accordingly.Ghmyrtle 15:48, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
- The date has been edited to and fro a few times. Allmusic says April 21, 1939, and the article was edited in 2009 to include that date here. IMDb (not reliable, I know) says August 21, 1938. Here, Maresca says that he was 17 in 1956 - which could mean either 1938 or 1939 (not necessarily 1939). But, as well as Ms Maresca's comments above, there are copious public records available via subscription at Ancestry.com that state his date of birth as August 21, 1938, and in the April 8, 1940 US census here his age was given as 1 - if he had been born after April 8, 1939, it would have been stated in months. Also, public information here. So, the evidence points to August 21, 1938 (as I said in 2007) - I'll correct it, and reinstate the footnote. Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:12, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
