[Phpgedview-talk] how to indicate julian calendar?

[waldo k. <wki...@wi...>]

i've numerous gedcom records that are dated using the julian calendar format. 
this format, as i understand it, starts the new year on March 25th and not Jan 
1st...

how can i indicate, in each date field, that it is a julian calendar date so 
that the age is figured properly?

ie: for Henry Boone, son of George Boone (II)...

Documents owned by the Boone Society:
(1) Henry Son of George Boone was baptized the nineteenth of October 1663
  Henry Son of George Boone was buryed ye eighth of February 1663

(Note: In the old style reckoning [Julian calendar], March 25 was the beginning 
of the year, therefore the infant Henry would have been about 4 months old at 
his burial.)
