About 1819: Note that Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz are not quoted as saying so; this is just something that is stated by the journalist, in the article. Also, Hook and Baelfire traveled to Neverland sometime after Big Ben was completed, and Big Ben was completed in 1859, meaning that "Poor Unfortunate Souls", which takes place nearly a century after Hook went to Neverland, cannot take place any earlier than circa 1958.

About Rumple and Hook's age: Emma never actually says that Hook is 300 years old, she just asks, "What are you, like 300?"
