Speaking of living for a long time......................... Have any of you ever uncovered in your research, a relative that was older or younger than they thought? The remaining grandchildren of my greatgrandmother are very skeptical when I say she was born in 1860. She said she was born in 1861. That is what is on her tombstone, too. She was born in Atlanta, GA and I even have some of her early memories of the war. When I started doing genealogy, I found her family on the 1860 census of GA as a baby being 7 month old. She died in 1960 right before her supposed 100th birthday. She had write ups in the newspaper when she supposedly turned 99, too. It's a shame..........she was really 100 and didn't know it! Her family was run out of their home by Yankees, so I guess everything was a little mixed up back then! Vicki
