Error corrections or clarifications |

* William Desmond Taylor's birth certificate
clearly states he was born on April 26th, 1872, not 1877,
or 1867, as several published sources erroneously claim.
** Many reports erroneously state Taylor died
in "Hollywood." His home (which no longer exists) was on
South Alvarado Street, in central Los Angeles, not
Hollywood.
