[Dixielandjazz] Scott Joplin's Birthdate?

[Robert Ringwald]

This from another List:

(snip)
> 1868: Scott Joplin
"There are no documents of the exact date of Joplin's birth, but it has been narrowed
down to between July 19, 1867 and mid-January 1868."

Is this correct?  Or has Joplin's birthdate been found?
