Title: When were your grandparents born?
Post by: GSH on March 12, 2009, 10:17:11 PM
In fact, what century? One American president was born in 1790. And has two grandkids still alive. Not great-grandkids.

They must have been born when their parents were like 110 and they must be 120 years old. :-P

Well, my mother is 54 or 53 this year and my grandmother isn't around anymore. I guess she was 90.

Note: I guess BZU is a lot more silent and tranquil now I am away...

sometime in the 20s

I dont mean to get biblical on your buttox BBB but no one can live to 120.

But that makes sense. lets say he had em at 40, tha twould be 1830, they lived 100 years, 1930 the grand kids are still living at 80 years.

That would assume the grandchildren were born when their parents were in their 90s/100s, which isn't technically possible. Both he and his children would have had to have had their children at about 60, which is possible but very unlikely.
