French Republican Calendar

[ozgirl]

GGG Grandfather was born in or near Antwerp about 2 Feb 1798. The records for BMD's in that time are written using the French Republican
Calendar.
I think I should be looking at around 11 Pluviose in year VI of the calendar.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

Oops - should be Republican Calendar not Revolutionary, could someone amend the title - Thanks

Title amended for you Linda.

This site converts it to 14 Pluviôse VI

thanks Elaine, hadn't seen that - so according to that chart the 2 Feb was 14 Pluviose.

I wonder what my FTM would do if I tried to put that in!
