I'm wondering is writing  "III" common for "March"? Is it Roman numerals, and just for the months? Or is it perhaps just a Paul and Elsy quirk?

I've seen the use of Roman numerals before, and it was just for the months. I can't tell you how widespread this was, but it isn't something Paul & Elsy 'invented'.

Thanks Zefiro, I have had a quick google today and discovered that it was quite common over Europe to write the month in Roman numerals, and whilst some still do so now, it became less common during the 20th Century. Interesting - I have never been aware of it before.
