An American family has set a Guinness World Records title after five generations of relatives were born on the same date, September 14, spanning more than a century.
The record was achieved following the birth of Arthur Bell on September 14, 2025, making him the fifth consecutive generation in his family to share the birthday.
According to Guinness World Records in a report published on November 12, 2026, the family’s birthday tradition began with Arthur’s great-great-grandfather, Wilber Harlow, who was born on September 14, 1907.
Wilber’s daughter, Addie Harlow, was born on the same date in 1949, followed by her son, Donald Harlow, in 1972.
Donald’s daughter, Emma Bell, was born on September 14, 1997, while Emma’s son, Arthur, arrived on the same date in 2025.
The five generations are therefore Wilber, Addie, Donald, Emma and Arthur.
Guinness World Records said the family surpassed the previous record of four generations
