Peter MAGERS (II) 1 2
- Born: 5 Feb 1732/33, Baltimore County, Maryland 2 3
- Marriage: Ann
- Died: 13 Apr 1790, Frederick County, Maryland 4
 Birth Notes:
The date of birth per the source for St. Paul records is 5 Feb 1732. Since this date predates the calendar changes of 1752, the genealogical convention is to double date the event as 5 Feb 1732/33, in order to show that the event occurred on 5 Feb 1732 under the Old Style dating system (the end of 1732 being 24 Mar 1732), but would have occurred in 1733 under the New Style dating system (the beginning of 1733 being 1 Jan instead of 25 Mar). I suspect some family records incorrectly show the double date as 5 Feb 1731/32, because genealogy programs seems to presume any date entered is in the New Style format and automatically will double date using the prior year instead of the subsequent year.
Peter married Ann. (Ann was born about 1736 in Baltimore County, Maryland 4 and died after 1800 4.)
