Research Notes

• Changed the birthdate from 1513, as listed on 'Íslendingabók', to about 1515 as listed on WikiData and 'Íslenzkar Æviskrár...'. Research needed to see where Íslendingabók has their date from. Could possibly be from 'Diplomatarium Islandicum...'. (Eysteinsson-236 18:29, 14 May 2021 (UTC)).
