In the case of May 1900 the Q date would be Jun Q 1900.
If you know the entire date, you don't need to worry about quarters - just
put in the entire date.
6 May 1900 is MUCH more precise than Jun Q 1900.

So in other wods if someone is born 6 May 1900 the Q date would be 06 05
02 1900 ---
or would it be just 05 02 1900?
or would it be 5 2 1900?
Thanks for the explanation, Brian.

Patricia,
Q Date is a shorthand for Quarter Dates. In the British BMD Indexes the
entires are reported under the calendar Quarter when the birth marriage
or Death was registered. The Q dates are Mar Q xxxx, for all BMD entries
in Jan, Feb and Mar, Jun Q xxxx for Apr to Jun etc. many Legacy Users who
use the British BMD Indexes wanted a way to record the Quarter of
Registration so we added this special date format to accommodate them.
