Day: December 1, 1740

December 1, 1740

1740 December 1 (Monday).  Exceeding Rainy; The Earth fill’d with water and the Floods rais’d.  No Church meeting — no Burial of widow Tomlins Child[1] as was appointed.

[1]Mary, daughter of the late Isaac Tomlin, Jr., and Gemima, died Nov. 28, 1740.

Why Do the Days Listed in the Diary Entries before Sept. 15, 1752 Not Correspond to the Days on the Calendar?

In 1752, Great Britain and the American colonies switched from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar, which we use today in a slightly updated form.
