Julian & Gregorian Calendars
On
the
31st
of
March
1919,
Romania
changed
its
calendar,
from
the
Julian
calendar
to
the
Gregorian
calendar.
As
a
result,
the
date
on the
following day became the 14th of April 1919. If you have
a Romanian
document which has a date on it prior to April 1919, the
date which
appears there refers to the date according to the Julian
calendar.
To convert the date
on a
document issued in Romania prior to April 1919 to the
date according to
the present Gregorian calendar, add 13 days. The
difference in the
number of days between the Julian date and the Gregorian
date may
change according to the century. For rules
of conversion,
refer to this link:
http://www.hebrewcalendar.net/htdocs/main.en.html
which also converts to the Hebrew calendar.
http://www.hebrewcalendar.net/htdocs/main.en.html
which also converts to the Hebrew calendar.
This is probably the reason that many 19th and early 20th century immigrants who came from Eastern Europe were not certain of their date of birth.
Please note that the
date
change in the move from the Julian to Gregorian calendar
in Romania was
not the same in all other countries. These discrepancies
may have also
caused some confusion.
