OoglyMoogly · 19/06/2021 11:06

1900, 1902, 1912, 1921.

MrsMoastyToasty · 19/06/2021 11:10

1900, 1903, 1903, 1904.

I find it difficult to believe that one of my grandparents was a victorian. Also that his great grandchild (my DS) was born over a century later (I'm from a branch of the family who tend to be older first time parents).

Late 1910s, they were twenty-somethings in WWII.

Pickersgill · 19/06/2021 11:13

I'm 41 and my grandparents were born 1908, 1914, 1921 and 1923.

My great grandparents range from 1865 to 1901.

WhatHaveIFound · 19/06/2021 11:21

I only know the dates for my maternal grandparents as the other two were born overseas.

1897 & 1909

CeeceeBloomingdale · 19/06/2021 11:23

Pascha · 19/06/2021 11:26

TheLovelinessOfDemons · 19/06/2021 11:27

I don't know my maternal side, my paternal side were 1921 and 1922.

StColumbofNavron · 19/06/2021 11:28

1924 and 1928 for my maternal grandparents.

The same for my paternal grandparents but they were born rurally in a country that was brand spanking new and where people talked about being born in the summer that it rained when the funfair came even in 1956 when my dad was (possibly) born.

Cattenberg · 19/06/2021 11:31

1911, 1913, 1923 and 1924.

I’m 39.

Clickbait · 19/06/2021 11:32

Not sure of the exact years but approximately:

1898, 1904, 1911, 1914.

Have all been dead for 20+ years.

That's lovely! (if a bit frustrating when it comes to applying for passports I imagine Smile).
CiaoForNiao · 19/06/2021 11:34

1934, ummm... not sure for the others. How awful is that! Blush

SydneyCarton · 19/06/2021 11:37

Paternal grandmother: 1907
Paternal grandfather: 1912
Maternal grandmother: 1925
Maternal grandfather: 1915

I always found it odd that one grandma was biologically and probably socially old enough to be the other one’s mother (17 year age difference)

RRBB1920 · 19/06/2021 11:39

Grand father 1901, grand mother 1913ish, Nan 1921

CMOTDibbler · 19/06/2021 11:40

Papa 1918 and granny 1926.

Hughbert · 19/06/2021 11:41

Doublechins · 19/06/2021 11:43

1948 my maternal grandmother. Maternal grandfather was a few years before that.

Think my paternal grandmother was around 1930. No idea when my paternal grandfather was born.

My great grandparents on my mother's side were Born in the 1920's

LindaEllen · 19/06/2021 11:45

1920, 1940, 1940, 1940

All the younger ones are still with us. My grandad died in 2019 well into his 90s.

Terrazzo · 19/06/2021 11:46

Off the top of my head, 1938 ish? 1935, and 2 in 1930. All still with us! 🙏🏻

Ozanj · 19/06/2021 11:48
