Research Notes

  • Is the following correct?

A spouse's birth date (England-3164 born 13 Mar 1845) should not be more than 80 years or less than 10 years before the marriage date (10 May 1928).

Yes! She had two husbands who were over the age of 80 when she married them.

  • Note that her last two husbands were over 80 at the time of their marriage.
