George Washington was actually born on February 11, 1731 of the Julian calendar, in use before England's calendar reformation in September 1752. His birthday is equivalent to February 22, 1732 in the Gregorian calendar used since 1752. Later in life, Washington himself considered the 22d to be his birthday. Public celebrations for George Washington's birthday actually predate his term as president, in honor of his service during the American Revolutionary War. | ||
