  - The Case for Edmund Campion as the Author of Shakespeare
In an article of the Edward De Vere Society notebook, it is reasoned that because Childermas day didn’t fall on a Friday in 1413, the historical setting of the play, the date probably referred to the year when the poet was writing the drama.
During the late sixteenth century, the only years when Childermas day fell on a Friday were 1571, 1576, 1582 and 1593.
The article concludes that all the internal evidence of the play, which may have covertly dealt with the treason trial of the Duke of Norfolk, points to the date of December 28, 1571.

 Catholic Culture : Liturgical Year : Holy Innocents or Childermas Day: Parental Blessing of Children (Prayer)
The Feast of the Holy Innocents is a children's feast; this day has also been known as "Childermas." This is a good day to begin the parental blessing of their children.
Holy Innocents or "Childermas Day" is celebrated on December 28.
Prayers for Childermas include a versicle and the Collect from the Mass in addition to the original Christmas Evening Prayers.

 December 28th
In consequence probably of the feeling of horror attached to such an act of atrocity, Innocents' Day used to be reckoned about the most unlucky through-out the year, and in former times, no one who could possibly avoid it, began any work, or entered on any undertaking, on this anniversary.
It is said of the equally superstitious and unprincipled monarch, Louis XI., that he would never perform any business, or enter into any discussion about his affairs on this day, and to make to him then any proposal of the kind, was certain to exasperate him to the utmost.
We are informed, too, that in England, on the occasion of the coronation of King Edward IV, that solemnity, which had been originally intended to take place on a Sunday, was postponed till the Monday, owing to the former day being in that year the festival of Childermas.

 Grantian Florilegium: The Holy Innocents
Whatever he is reading or listening to, whatever he is thinking or writing about, and whatever sundry projects he is working on, you are likely to find it here.
Often called Childermas, the very ancient Feast of the Holy Innocents solemnizes the slaughter of the children of Judea by Herod the Great following the birth of Christ (Matthew 2:16-18).
In ages past it has been the focus of the Church's commitment to protect and preserve the sanctity of human life--thus serving as a prophetic warning against the practicioners of abandonment and infanticide in the age of Antiquity, oblacy and pessiary in the medieval Epoch, and abortion and euthanasia in these days of Modernity.

 Is therea ny historical evidence of Childermas? - GovTeen Forums
Childermas is celebrated on December 28th to commemorate the death of the male children at the hands of King Herod in Bethlehem.
My question was whether or not there's any historical evidence that says for certain the event happened.
Estimations put the total town population of Bethlehem at around 1000; that's around 20-50 (a far cry from the Catholic church's 144,000 during the dark ages...) deaths.

 The Body: Editorial
A counterpoint to the Christian celebration of Christmas on December 25 is the Feast of the Holy Innocents, also known as Childermas, on December 28 which commemorates the massacre of an estimated twenty to thirty Jewish male children under two years of age.
The commemoration of the infanticide of these children on Childermas appears to have been instituted very early in the Christian church.

 Feast of the Holy Innocents (Childermas)
As to customs, the youngest child "rules the day." It is the youngest who decides the day's foods, drinks, music, entertainments, etc. (if you have a number of small children, you might want to divide up the honors among them).
In Spain and Hispanic countries like Mexico, Childermas is rather like April Fools Day is in America and France.
Tricks are pulled, and the one tricked is called "Innocente!" rather than an "April Fool!" In many places, it is the young who play tricks -- on their elders, whom they often lock inside rooms and such until the oldsters pay a ransom!

By the late 1800’s, it too had been stripped of all the celebratory hospitality that had marked it as a major feast of the Catholic Middle Ages.
Childermas, the December 28th Mass commemorating the Feast of the Holy Innocents slaughtered by Herod, was not replaced by another event so much as it was simply overcome by the commercialization of the holiday.

This day was formerly called "Childermas Day": its mournful character was marked by the use of fl vestments, muffled peals and processions of children, until the latter was banned by proclamation of Henry VIII in 1540.
