You are missing the point, unfortunately you seem to have broken the thread and lost your original example, but the calculation 110.years.ago gave you /exactly/ the right answer (to the second), the reason it looked wrong is that you were not looking at the time zone of the answer, so at first glance it looked wrong. If you make sure that you display the answer in the same time zone as the original then it will be what you want.
