Davis was correct--he was off on the date! November 30, 1858 was a Tuesday. I didn't notice where he lost a day. http://www.earth.com/calendar?11%2F1858 November 1858 S M Tu W Th F S 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Regards, Terri McDonald Hauk thauk@attbi.com

That brings up an interesting question... with things the way they were back then (in a backwods area, no technology, etc.), how many of the dates that we have are actually accurate??? If somebody who kept a regular diary every day can get off of the date, anybody can.

That's a good possibility, but a scary thought. I cross my dates up more often than I like to admit. and our ancestors didn't have all the calendars etc to keep them straight.
