Webster's 1828 Dictionary
How the English word “born” was understood when the King James Version was still the common Bible of English readers.
BORN, participle passive
of bear. baurn. Brought forth, as an animal. A very useful distinction is observed by good authors, who, in the sense of produced or brought forth, write this word born; but in the sense of carried, write it borne. This difference of orthography renders obvious the difference of pronunciation.
