Default How do I subtract today's date from one before 1900?

I'm attempting to create an Excel timeline of battles and major eveins in
United States history. I want one of the column's to show how many years it
has been since that date.
For example, say A6 has July 4, 1776. Cell A1 has the formula =Today()
Every time I use the formula =Year(A1)-Year(A6) I get an error message in
the cell.
