Lorenzo Cardella, Memorie storiche de' cardinali della Santa Romana Chiesa, vol. VII, Rome 1793, p. 80 explains that some sources give 1621 as the year of his birth but this goes back to the typographical error in the renewed edition of Ciacconius' Vitae et res gestae Pontificum Romanorum et S.R.E. Cardinalium (1621 instead of 1631).
^ Contemporary, John Bargrave, states he was no older than 18 when he was made a cardinal, giving credence to the accuracy of a 1631 birth.
