No, the 19th century ends on 31 december 1900, so all people born in the year 1900 are born in the 19th century.

Please, this is basic knowledge.

What are you talking about? How does that contradicts what any of us said? From 1801 to 1900 we are talking about XIX (19th) century, if someone was born the 1800s (in this case 1899) it was born on the 19th century.

Basic knowledge indeed.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

1800s may refer to:

  • The period from 1800 to 1899, almost synonymous with the 19th century (1801–1900)
1800s is not the same thing as the 19th century. That's what the OP said. Everyone from the 1800s is dead. Two people from the 19th century are still alive, while these articles said they're all dead.
