That's crazy. I didn't even know you could register them that far back. You learn something new everyday.

The 100 oldest registered domains. Here are the 10 oldest:


1. 15-Mar-1985 SYMBOLICS.COM
2. 24-Apr-1985 BBN.COM
3. 24-May-1985 THINK.COM
4. 11-Jul-1985 MCC.COM
5. 30-Sep-1985 DEC.COM
6. 07-Nov-1985 NORTHROP.COM
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/237526-oldest-domain-names-on-internet.html
7. 09-Jan-1986 XEROX.COM
8. 17-Jan-1986 SRI.COM
9. 03-Mar-1986 HP.COM
10. 05-Mar-1986 BELLCORE.COM

The very first domain registered was on March 15, 1985 and #100 was on November 30, 1987, a full two plus years later.

Looks like you have the only 6 domains registered in 1985.
