Dual Dating of Using Calendars

  1. From 1582 until 1923, when the last European country adopted the Gregorian calendar, dual dating (sometimes with dual years) were seen.
  2. The dual years were because the Julian Calendar still had New Year's Day on March 25. For example, "10/21 February 1750/51" or 10 Feb 1750 (or O.S.)/Feb 21, 1751 Gregorian (or N.S.)
  3. For some countries that were to begin the Gregorian calendar later in the year, they rolled over the new year on January 1 but continued to use the Julian dates until they officially dropped some 10-13 days when moving to the new year.
    1. Example: January 1, 1751 (Juilan with New Year on March 25 in some countries), January 1, 1752 (Julian with the New Year on January 1 in Great Britian and its colonies since it was to begin the Gregorian year later that year), or January 12, 1752 (Gregorian date)
    2. ex: John Dee (1527-1608/9) was his year range using Julian - Julian/Gregorian years of birth and death.
    3. For dating between the Julian-1 and Julian-3-25- calendars, dual dating occurred on dates before March 25. Example: March 24 1609/10.
