This came in today and contained the surname CRERAR...no information whatsoever on the identities though. I notice there was no YEAR given, if its provided later as an oversight, I'll send it on. However, there were only 7 years between 1850 and 1900 that was a Monday on March 4 : 1852, 58, 69, 75, 80, 86 and 97. Leap years affected some of the Mondays in the series. A Perpetual Calendar is a fun thing to have.....MegG ================== Source: NZ-HAWKES-BAY-N-POVERTY-BAY@rootsweb.com Subject: [NZ-HB-PB] HB Herald, Mon. Mar 4.
