==Calculating Birth Dates==  


We all know that having birth dates helps us to complete the information for our ancestors, and birth dates many times are much harder to find the further back you go. But many times we at least have the date of death with the age listed in years-months-days. Or sometimes we wish to know how old a person would be from a birth date. The date calculators listed above can help you determine that information.
Having birth dates for our ancestors helps us confirm our finds, as well as better identify them in other records. However, finding precise birth dates can be much more difficult as we research further back in time. We may only have our ancestor’s age (sometimes in the format of years/months/days) at time of death, or our ancestor’s age in another document. We may wish to know how old an ancestor would be from their birth date.  Using a Date Calculator can help us with the addition and subtraction necessary to discover our a more precise date. The date calculators listed above can help you determine that information.
