Greetings Listers I know that the move from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar took effect in England on 1 Jan 1752. Was it effective on the same date in Scotland - or did it happen earlier? (I have a bell ringing that it may have been earlier than England, but I can't verify it). Many thanks.
