A day late, story of my life

Yesterday I took part in a meme. I was working at the same time and forgot to tag some folks, which I am about to do right now. Hope it's not too late.
The rules are easy. (I cut and pasted the directions from my retired librarian friend Joan. Is that plagiarism?)
Joan tagged her sister Lynn, who tagged me.

Joan wrote: "Simply go over to Wikipedia, type in the month and day of your birth, and then post three events that happened on that date in history, two people who share your birthday and one person who died on that day." Notice I used direct quotes, so as not to be accused of plagiarism. :-)

I tag Ralph, Michael C and Empress Bee.
Have fun!
