February 11, 1731 or February 11, 1731/2.
When George Washington was born in 1731, the British Empire used the Julian
calendar. They changed to the Gregorian calendar in 1752. This involved
skipping 11 days to catch up, since the Julian calendar wasn't as accurate
with regard to the solar year as the Gregorian calendar. Another change
caused by this adoption was that New Year's Day moved from March 25
(Christian Annunciation Day) to January 1. Thus, under the new calendar, the
February when Washington was born was now considered to have occurred in
1732 instead of 1731.
