Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is this birth date calculator?

The calculator provides a good estimate of the birth date. For age in years, it's usually accurate within a few days. For months and days, it's more precise but still an approximation.

Can I use this for historical research?

Yes! This calculator is useful for genealogy and historical research when you have age information from census records, documents, or other historical sources.

What if I only know the birth year?

If you only know the birth year, you can estimate the birth date by using the middle of the year (June 15th) as a reference point for more accurate calculations.

Why might the result be slightly off?

Birth date calculations can vary due to leap years, different month lengths, and the fact that age is typically calculated differently in different contexts. The result is an estimate.
