To my knowledge there never was a February 30th of any year. I would think 1760 was way after the Gregorian calendar was put into place.

Saturday I was at a cemetery in Lewes Del. There was a tombstone there with the persons date of birth as February 30 ,1760. Was that a legitimate date at one time? I know that there was some sort of thing that happened with the calendar when it was changed from Julian to Gregorian ?? but I don't think it would have resulted in something like this . I am pretty sure this date was a goof . Can anyone enlighten me on this?
