Thank you!

The date is also available on the following: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=rmjllj&id=P18231
His marriage to Anne Moleyns has been published in books, but the books fail to list his birth year.
[CLIFFORD2] does not list his birthdate, but indicates he died before his father's death in 1438. Tudorplace lists his brother's birthdate as 1408, the same as listed in wikitree.com
