.NetCore MVC Application - Jquery date set in Create view is reset in Edit View

Question

As per the title, in my CRUD application, the date set in the Create View (via Jquery datepicker) is not remembered when I edit records.

Here is my code for the DOB field in my Create View:

    <div class="form-group">
        <label asp-for="DateOfBirth" class="control-label"></label>

        <p><input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>
    </div>

Here is my code for the DOB field in my Edit View:

    <div class="form-group">
        <label asp-for="DateOfBirth" class="control-label"></label>

        <p><input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>
    </div>

The Edit (get) Method does seem to have the correct DOB before it passes the entity to the view:

I am unsure how to sort of pass values through.

Any help will be appreciated, thanks
