Since Easter 2002 is also March 31st, the rest of the dates are identical to 1157/1156.

Dear Friends,
March 31 1157 as Easter Day and therefore 40 days back (excluding Sundays) makes Wed. 13 February as Ash Wednesday and therefore
Quadragesima Sunday is February 17, 1157.
Thus the period of civil disruption in Nantes in 1157 is from Jan 6th to February 17th, between six and seven weeks.
So far so good, but can anyone check my figures and tell me if I have it right ?
BTW I will happily send a copy of my "How to Calculate Easter" notes to anyone who would like a copy.
