Twins Both Older Than Each Other!

This is what I discovered:
Two American twins have the amazing fact of both being older than each other.
The strange birthdays occurred because the twins were born near the time that daylight savings ended. The first baby, Samuel, was born at 1:39 a.m. during daylight savings time. His brother, named Ronan, was born 31 minutes later, after daylight savings time had ended, making him 29 minutes older.

My Opinion:
Technically, Samuel will have been the older one because he was born earlier. 

My Wondering:
Has anything like this ever happened before?
After googling, I don't think this has ever happened before.

Source:
I found this information on Kiwi Kids News.

Words:
Maternity: motherhood.
Witnessed: see (an event, typically a crime or accident) happen.
Nursing: the profession or practice of providing care for the sick and infirm.
