How long was it since 1609?
In years: 2018 - 1609 = 409 years In days: This is not quite so simple: 409 years = 409 × 365 days + leap days = 149,285 + leap days The leap days are calculated: 1609 - 1699 had: 1612, 1616, ..., 1696 = 22 leap days 1700 was a leap year → 1700-1799 had 25 leap days 1800 was not a leap year → 1800-1899 had 24 leap days 1900 was not a leap year → 1900-1999 had 24 leap days 2000 was a leap year → 2000-2018 had 2000, 2004, ..., 2016 = 5 leap days = an additional 22 + 25 + 24 + 24 + 5 = 100 days BUT in 1752 the calendar was adjusted to remove extra leap days to get get the calendar back in sync with the seasons - the 11 days between 2 September 1752 and 14 September 1752 simply did not exist - the people went to sleep on 02/9/1752 and woke up the following morning on 14/09/1752. So there are a total of 100 - 11 = 89 extra days, making it 149,374 days between 1609 and 2018 (or more accurately between 01/01/1609 and 01/01/2018). This is why the tax year now runs between 6 April and 5 April the next year - the tax year used to be in sync with the year which started on 25 March (9 months before 25 December) and when the 11 days were removed from the calendar in 1752 (at which time the calendar was changed to start 1 January) the people refused to pay taxes for the 11 days they had not had and so delayed payment for 11 days; the tax year stuck with the old year start of 25 March, but with an extra 11 days taking it to 6 April.

When is president Thomas Jefferson Birthday?
Thomas Jefferson was born on April 2, 1743 under the Julian Calendar which was in effect at the time. When the Gregorian Calendar was adopted by Britain in 1752, it moved the calendar ahead 11 days, thus after 1752 it was celebrated on April 13.
What changed in 1752 which caused England to have a White Christmas less frequently thereafter?
Fewer white Christmases were experienced after 1752 because the calendar was changed from the Julian to the Gregorian in 1752 in the UK, thus effectively shifting Christmas 11 days earlier. The change had taken place in much of Europe well over a hundred years earlier, but did not take place in Russia until after the Revolution, in about 1920, so by that time the shift was 15 days.

Why cut 11 day in 1752 calendar?
In September 1752 the Julian calendar was replaced with the Gregorian calendar in Great Britain and its American colonies. The Julian calendar was 11 days behind the Gregorian calendar, so 14 September got to follow 2 September on the day of the change. The result was that between 3 and 13 September, absolutely nothing happened!
