My own life and my opinions are shared at When I was 69.

REMEMBER: In North America, the month of September 1752 was exceptionally short, skipping 11 days, when the Gregorian Calendar was adapted from the old Julian one, which didn't have leap year days.

As I completed the above list, I found many "hints" on Ancestry. And one set or maybe two, took me in a new direction, finding two grandfathers of the same name, but 2 generations apart, and one has been designated the "Short" and one the "Long"...and apparently they also had another of the same name who married within 5 years of the "Long" and had many children...so they are often combined in various ancestry trees. I stuck with the wife I had had before, and the dates I had had as well...though there are enticing wills dated later than my gg grandfather's death. I may or may not go back and see if there is anyone who's divided these families apart. For now, I can see why I haven't gone any further back on that line yet!
