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.
May 11th through history
The only British Prime Minister to be assassinated
On May 11th 1812 Spencer Perceval was shot dead in the lobby of the House of Commons by John Bellingham, a Liverpool merchant nursing a grievance against the government over an imprisonment in Russia and a debt he believed the state owed him. Perceval remains the only British Prime Minister to have been assassinated. He left twelve children and very little money, and Parliament voted his family £50,000.
On May 11th 1985 fire swept the main stand at Valley Parade during Bradford City’s final match of a promotion-winning season, and fifty-six people died. The stand was timber and rubbish had been accumulating beneath it for years. The inquiry that followed rewrote the law on sports grounds across the country.
Bob Marley died on May 11th 1981 in Miami at the age of thirty-six, having recorded much of his best-known work in a basement studio in London. On May 11th 1997 the IBM computer Deep Blue beat Garry Kasparov in the final game of a six-game match, the first time a reigning world champion had lost a match to a machine under tournament conditions.
Salvador Dali, who became one of the most recognisable of the Surrealist painters, was given the name of an elder brother who had died shortly before he was born, and was reminded of it throughout his childhood. He arrived at Figueres in Catalonia on May 11th 1904; the songwriter Irving Berlin, composer of some of America’s best-loved standards, was born in 1888, and the actress Margaret Rutherford, celebrated for her comic character roles, in London in 1892.
Born on May 11th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Salvador Dali and Irving Berlin — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Taurus — an Earth sign ruled by Venus, symbolised by the Bull.
Birthstone
Emerald for May.
Birth flower
Lily of the Valley (primary), also Hawthorn — most commonly cited sources agree on lily of the valley as the main May 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.
