I doubt Robert's birth date is wrong.
As I recall, at the time of Robert's birth, they were living at the Globe Tavern. (see last two paragraphs)

Living in a boarding house, and a small town, the gossip certainly would have followed the Lincoln's since he was a prominent politician, and some one (especially Herndon) would have seriously mentioned it long before Wayne Temple.
