According to the link "Associated Press archives list Williams' birthday as Aug. 8, 1921. Boll said Tuesday that the actress was born Aug. 8, 1922."

According to the California Birth Index, 1905-1995, "Ester J Williams" was born August 8 1921 in Los Angeles County with mother's maiden name: Gilpin
