Lisa,

Given that you posted your enquiry yesterday, which happened to be World Prematurity Day, have you considered the possibility that your grandmother might have been born prematurely - and thus she was conceived later than mid February 1917.

These were my thoughts too.  Don't know about survivability rates for premmies in that period, though.
