Hello, all :) I have a question: In the early-19th century (1700-1840), what was the youngest age reported of a boy or man fathering a child ? Now, for My puzzle: I have a John GRAHAM, born either in Paisley in 1710, or Eastwood in 1709. (Both places are in Renfrew.) Then, I have another John, reportedly born about 1727. This John is supposedly the father of Archibald GRAHAM, born 1735, who was the father of Effie GRAHAM, born in 1776 (or '75?) in Inveraray, Argyllshire. Here stands the problem: IF my first John was born even in 1709, he would have been... 17 or 18 yo when the second John was born. That's possible. But, the second John GRAHAM (born about 1727) would have been only 7 or 8 when Archibald was born! Archibald would have been 41 yo old when Effie was born in December of 1776, definitely within the age of fatherhood! The date I have for my second John is from the LDS. With my John GRAHAM, the question becomes, am I dealing with one man, of two? Thank you for any help given. Kelly Paul Graham Houston, Texas
