Benjamin Franklin Feingold was actually born on June 15, 1899 in Pittsburgh PA
- Until recently, he was thought by most people (including himself) to have been born in 1900, but thanks to his daughter who works in the Census Bureau, we now have the source document which shows his actual year of birth to be 1899.
