I wonder if anyone could help with this query.
I know that there were calender changes in the past.
I have just downloaded an Old Parish Register entry from Scotlands People and the month of the marriage is listed as 31 November 1845.
Now, not only does that seem at odds with the rhyme - 30 days hath September etc, but FTM won't accept it and rightly so.
Am I missing something - were the months different at that date or is it just a recording error?
The handwritten script is very clear so no problems there.
Many thanks.
