Pre-1752 dates may be confusing. For example, the day after 24 March 1565 was 25 March 1566. Dates between 1 January and 24 March are often recorded using a technique called double dating. An example of double dating is 16 February 1696/7. | Pre-1752 dates may be confusing. For example, the day after 24 March 1565 was 25 March 1566.
