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!
What year did Great Britain begin to use the new calendar?

Why are there no registered births or deaths in England on September third 1752?

What happened in Great Britain on September 3 1752?
Year 1752 was a leap year starting on Saturday of the Gregoria calendar, and a leap year starting on Wednesday of the 11-day slower Julian calendar. In Great Britain and the British Empire it began as a Julian year but was switched to a Gregorian year in September; in those countries the dates between September 3 and 14 did not occur.

Was March 25 celebrated as New Year's Day?
Yes. Up through 1751, March 25th was celebrated as New Years Day in colonial America (and other British colonies). So March 24, 1750 was followed by March 25, 1751, the first day of 1751. The first day of 1752 followed 282 days later on January 1 (on a day which would have been January 1, 1751 on the previous calendar). So there was no January 1, 1751, nor any other days up through March 24, 1751 (as those days would have followed December 31, 1751 on the old calendar). Instead those days are known as January 1, 1752 through March 24, 1752, because the New Year was moved to January 1st that year. 1752 was also shorted by 11 days in September to reset the vernal equinox to March 21st, thus synchronizing with the Gregorian calendar. So 1751 was only 282 days long, and 1752 was only 354 days.

When did the U.S. start to observe leap year?
The first leap year in the modern sense was 1752, when 11 days were 'lost' from the month September with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar by Britain and her colonies. After 1752 we adopted the system still in use today where an additional day is inserted in February in years wholly divisible by 4, other than years ending in 00 with the exception of those divisible by 400 which are still leap years (like 2000). This is certainly not the first use of leap years, the Julian calendar we used before 1752 had a simpler system of leap years, and remember, no calendar is universal.
Why was there 31 day in September 1953?
