How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
February 6th through history
A princess in a treetop hotel becomes Queen
On February 6th 1952 George VI died in his sleep at Sandringham, aged 56. His elder daughter was in Kenya, staying at Treetops, a hotel built into a fig tree above a watering hole in the Aberdare forest. She was told several hours later, and flew home as Elizabeth II at the age of 25. Accession Day was afterwards marked quietly every year, being also the anniversary of her father’s death.
The Representation of the People Act became law on February 6th 1918, giving the vote to women over 30 who met a property qualification and to all men over 21. It added roughly eight and a half million women to the register. Equal terms with men had to wait another ten years.
The Manchester United team was flying home from a European tie on February 6th 1958 when its British European Airways aircraft crashed on the third attempt to take off from a slush-covered runway at Munich. Twenty-three people died, among them eight players. Matt Busby, gravely injured, rebuilt the side and won the European Cup ten years later.
Bob Marley, the reggae musician and songwriter who did more than anyone to carry Jamaican music to a worldwide audience, was born at Nine Mile in the parish of Saint Ann, Jamaica, on February 6th 1945, and made his first record in Kingston at sixteen.
Born on February 6th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Bob Marley and Ronald Reagan — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Aquarius — an Air sign ruled by Saturn (traditional) / Uranus (modern), symbolised by the Water-Bearer.
Birthstone
Amethyst for February.
Birth flower
Violet (primary), also Primrose — most commonly cited sources agree on violet as the main February flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.
