thanks Kraig... yes... it is very likely they are Quaker dates.

I have a bible record in which one of the younger children is listed

born 2nd day of 9th month called Septm New Stile ....
This implies the older children's dates would be "old style"
How do I determine what month they would have been born in relation
to
the number of the month listed?
ex. 28th day 7th mo 1741
1st day 4th mo 1748
Is it a three month difference?
Linda,
It looks like you not only have mixed Old Style and New Style dates;
you also have Quaker dates. ;-)
The link to "Quaker Calendar" on this page is a pretty good
explanation:
