Death of Cândido Rondon's parents[edit]

In this page [1] I have found inconsistent information about the death of Cândido Rondon. See below:

Biography Early life Cândido Mariano da Silva was born on 5 May 1865 in Mimoso, a small village in the state of Mato Grosso. His father, Cândido Mariano da Silva, Sr., was of Portuguese, Spanish, and Guaná (an indigenous group) ancestry, and died of smallpox in 1864, prior to Rondon's birth. His mother, Claudina Freitas Evangelista, was descended from the Terena and Bororo indigenous peoples.[1] She died two years after giving birth to Rondon.[2]

My comment is as follows; if the father died in 1864, prior to Rondon's birth, then it's impossible that the mother died two years after, giving birth to him -- or this would have been the longest pregnancy ever!

I am afraid I don't have the accurate information to provide but this inconsistency needs to be corrected.

Thanks for your patience,
