The ladies of that branch were of the unanimous opinion that anyone so uncouth as to ask a lady her age did not deserve a truthful answer. One of them also qualifies as a Mis-Conception, appearing as a 5 year old child in the 1850 US Census, 10 years prior to the date of birth she reported to the census-takers in 1900.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24066635.post-2301258012223271652018-01-17T12:12:03.905-05:002018-01-17T12:12:03.905-05:00Yesterday I found (in a genealogy) a woman born in...Yesterday I found (in a genealogy) a woman born in 1502 in Wales and married in 1521 in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut.

Miraculous aging!!!<br /><br />In my late husband's experience, he found a relation who was toasted all over Cape Breton Island for being 100 years old, and even greeted by the Premier, on her 100th birthday. Too bad that he discovered she had aged 20 years between two consecutive census dates. But at least there was no one left around to tell her she was wrong! Cheers, BTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
