[edit]
There is a solitary reference given in the article: S. G. Tallentyre's Friends of Voltaire. There is a link to this book which is available for viewing online. If you do a control-F you will find exactly two references to La Grange, and no mention of when he was born and when he died.
The main article says he was born in 1707 and died in 1767. But the book of Arthur M. Wilson published in 1972 by Oxford University Press says this Nicolas La Grange, who translated Seneca and was associated with D'Holbach, died in 1775. (It does not give his year of birth.) [1]Otis Fellows in his book Diderot also states that La Grange died in 1775. [2]
