A portion of chapter nine of Stefan des Lauriers internet published “slightly embellished” autobiography is set on this date. Apparently on that date he took ferry ride with his girlfriend who recieved a single bed from her aunt (in order that the girlfriend would stay so) and joked that he would throw her in the river.

Hmm. On the day I was born, 7th November 1983, a bomb exploded in US Capitol, causing heavy damage but no injuries. On November 7 1883, the state of Colorado accepted female suffrage. Neat.
Using the preferred format (“date of month, year”) I got exactly one hit: a link to a conspiracy theory website’s seventh chapter on the JFK assassination. Apparently, one Albert Osborne was seen in Mexico City that day, with a man “masquerading as Oswald.” Since Kennedy was assassinated by the FBI’s team of 25-30 expert riflemen/assassins based in Mexico, this is very damning. I guess.
More mundane stuff was found using a more normal date format:
