Not sure about this one. These were children who didn't see each other very often, probably didn't give each other presents, that was done by Mother and Daddy. I can't remember when I became aware of my siblings' birthdays, and my two youngest wouldn't have known each other's at Roger's age, not with any accuracy. But you'd think Susan at least would know, wouldn't you? - I just think they had no reason to worry about it and (except for Susan) it seems that all their birthdays were in term time.
