>>>>I actually think the typo she was referring to Washington having been born on February 11 and not February 10 as you have in your e-mail. I already knew he was born February 11, plus that's the date in the link you gave us.<<< Yup, that was the typo, Patricia. When I added Feb 10th + the weird 11 days, it didn't = Feb 22nd. And then I too clicked the gov.link where it pops right out at ya. "George Washington was born in Virginia on February 11, 1731, according to the then-used Julian calendar. " Thank you both. .
