You can see both transcripts and images of many of the original records, in the Thomas Jefferson collection, which has been digitized. See http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/jefferson_papers/vc04.html for table of contents for Vol. IV.

This is based on the ASSUMPTION that this is the date shown on the original reports, etc. (and could be properly shown today, I believe, as 1622/23). What we are reading in the histories, encyclopedias, etc may well be "edited" or "corrected", however, certainly not acceptable unless so noted. Has anyone out there seen actual copies of any of these original reports? Or are we depending upon "transcripts" which, in actuality, may not be transcripts at all, but "edited transcripts" or even "edited abstracts". And even "transcripts" contain typos.
