Peggy's birthday's a bit all over the place. Her files say April 1919, her medical exam from The Iron Ceiling is from when she was "26 ⁴/₁₂" at some point before April 1946 which would mean she was born before December 1919, the Civil War prop with the order of service says 1921, her obituary in Emancipation says April 1921 and that she died aged 95 which would put her date of birth between June 1920 and June 1921, and now I've seen that Hayley Atwell has shared this video, presumably from a few years back, in which they say that Peggy is 91 in The Winter Soldier. By our reckoning, that would mean she was born between January 1992 and January 1923, and since The Winter Soldier is definitively between July 2013 and July 2014, it places her date of birth between July 1921 and July 1923.


 * 1919: Prop on show, deleted scene, tiny prop in The Iron Ceiling.
 * 1921: Prop posted online (slightly less than prop on show), date in paper in Emancipation (more valuable than deleted scene), age clear in paper in Emancipation (more valuable than tiny prop).
 * 1922: Makeup people.

1921 holds the most weight overall. Though, it is weird.

Hayley was born on April 5, 1982.
 * The middle of filming for Captain America: The First Avenger was about September 16, 2010, making her 10,391 days old, Working back from the middle of the film, November 3, 1943, Peggy would have been born around May 23, 1915.
 * Wikipedia cites this for when the title sequences of Marvel One-Shot: Agent Carter were being put together. We can guess filming was around then. It says Spring 2013. Colloquially in New York, spring 2013 began March 1, 2013 05:00 UTC. Spring 2013 officially began March 20, 2013 11:01 UTC. So it roughly begins March 10 20:00:30 UTC. Spring 2013 in New York colloquially ends June 1, 2013 03:59:59.99999 UTC. It officially ends June 21, 2013 05:02:59.99999 UTC. So it roughly ends June 11, 2013 04:31:29.99999 UTC. Therefore, the middle of spring 2013 was April 26, 2013 00:16:00 UTC. So we can guess the one-shot filmed around April 25.5, 2013. This would make Hayley 11,343.5 days old. The middle of it is set on March 15, 1946, suggesting Peggy was born around February 22.5, 1915.
 * Season 1 filmed roughly October 0.5, 2014-January 20, 2015. The middle of this is November 25.25, 2014. This would make Hayley 11,922.25 days old. The middle of the season is set on April 24.5, 1946, making Peggy born around September 3.25, 1913.
 * Season 2 filmed roughly August 31-December 19, 2015. The middle of this is October 25, 2015. This would make Hayley 12,256 days old. The middle of the season is set on July 19, 1947, making Peggy born around December 28, 1913.
 * So overall, Hayley Atwell's age would put Peggy's date of birth at around ([May 23, 1915]*(1/(10,391/365.25)) + [February 22.5, 1915]*(1/(11,343.5/365.25)) + [September 3.25, 1913]*(1/(11,922.25/365.25)) + [December 28, 1913]*(1/(12,256/365.25)))/((1/(10,391/365.25)) + (1/(11,343.5/365.25)) + (1/(11,922.25/365.25)) + (1/(12,256/365.25))) = August 4.01807, 1914. That would make Peggy nearly 7 years younger than Hayley Atwell on average, which seems kinda off. It's less weird with someone in their 50s or 60s, but for someone in their 20s/30s, 7 years makes a big difference... It's just kinda weird.
