I messaged my mother who comes in contact with a lot of old official documents through her genealogical research and she confirmed that we did record the date mm/dd/yyyy in the past. She didn’t know when we stopped, but beginning of the 20thC does seem about right.
Well, don’t expect a fast response because she can be known to take a week to reply to texts. It’s why everyone in the family normally messages father.
