`  == Questions about references ==  === Fun(ny) facts === I'd like to find sources for the dates given in the article, and eliminate any unsourced anomalous dates.  Hessian wolf children (1304, 1341 and 1344). Rauber cites reports in 1341 and 1344, and Chambers cites Rauber. Fantini though gives a date of 1349 for the Hessian wolf boy, and there is no source for the 1304 date. Does anyone know a source for these two dates?  Bamberg boy (late 1500s). Rauber (p.18) places him at the end of the 16th century, citing Camerarius' Horae Subcisivae, and Chambers cites Rauber. Singh, Zingg, and Feuerbach (Wolf-children and feral man; cited by Fantini) appear to dispute that this is a feral child , but all I have is this snippet. Has anyone read the source?  three Lithuanian bear-boys (1657, 1669, 1694). Rauber relates encounters in 1657 and 1663 (p.21), citing Rzaczynski (Historia Naturalis curiosa) , in 1661 (p.24), citing Louis Moreri's Le Grand Dictionaire Historique (Ursin, p.1225) , in 1669 (reported by Y. B. van den Kleverskerk) and in 1694 (reported by Bernard Connor) (p.26), citing Connor's 1698 History of Poland . Chambers, citing Rauber, reports these as 1657, 1669, and 1694. Fantini reports only the 1661 encounter, perhaps after Rauber though I don't know for sure.  Peter the Wild Boy of Hamelin (1724). Rauber (p.32) reports 1724, citing the Breslauer Sammlung (1729), and Chambers cites Rauber. Rauber though calls him ``Wild Peter of Hamelin,`` not ``Peter the Wild Boy``. Where did the name ``Peter the Wild Boy`` come from?  === Tertiary sources === There are several tertiary sources, in English, which appear to simply extract dates from Rauber and translate his names from the German. Should one be kept, or all of them, or none of them? If not all, then which should remain?  Fantini, Language acquisition of a bilingual child. Is there any reason besides the anomalous 1349 date for the Hessian wolf boy to keep Fantini as a source?   `
