A number of Leadbeater students, in effect, adopt
a "conspiracy theory" sort of thinking, to cast doubt
on the following historical records/evidence showing
that Leadbeater was born in 1854 instead of 1847 as he
contended.

(1) British marriage records indicate that
Leadbeater's parents were married on May 26, 1853.

(2) Leadbeater's own birth record indicates that he
was born on February 16, 1854.

[NOTE: Connecting the facts presented in (1) and (2),
one can see that Leadbeater was born about 9 months
after his parents were married. Not surprising in
light of known facts about human reproduction.]

(3) Leadbeater's mother gave his age [confirming the 1854 birthdate]
when registering her husband's death.

(4) In the Anglican diocesan records, Leadbeater gave his birth date
[1854] on his application for ordination in the Church of England

(5) In the census return submitted by Leadbeater in 1881, he stated
as Head of the Household that his age was 27 (i.e. born in 1854).

These followers contend that one cannot take the records at face 
value, that there is something wrong with these records.....
