Digital Date

Post by OzScot » Sun Sep 15, 2013 4:59 am

I have a scanned image of a Census 1911 document that contains details of my great-grandfather and family.

The electronic information added to the top of the scanned image shows "02/04/1911".

Does anyone know whether the is an American date notation (being February 4) or British (being 2nd April)?

Kind regards,

Ken Maxwell
