-==Calculating Birth Dates==
-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.
-Records that may give an exact age at death and a death date can be found on:
