If William was born c1850, he was quite old to be having Elizabeth in 1907

june lewis - hi yeah, i knew my grandmother i was 16 when she died and wasnt interested in family history then, her full name is on her gravestone, and my grandmothers daughter ivy left a written piece of paper telling her daughter, my cousin, what her grandads name was. but it turns out that william would of been a bit old to of been her father if he was born in 1850 and my grandmother in 1907, unless that was her great grandfather she was talking about and not her father. im confused myself now.

Helen


don't rule him out as being Elizabeth's father just because he was 57 ...... that's no where near being too old to father a child!


it's not unknow for an 80-year male to be a father!!


One of OH's older colleagues had 3 children after the age of 60.
