But surely if the day of the month came from K90B002 and the month a
year came from "X10Y0102" or whatever, then *both* documents should be
cited as Sources?  (With an indication that day was from one and month
and year from another.)

If you have "June 1900" stated in the document you have as "SOURCE
information" but have derived the day from K90B002 which is only
mentioned in Research Notes, when you publish to a wider audience they
(the audience) will see unsourced information.
