[/quote] That's what I'm asking. [/quote] Hmmmm. I don't think so. My nan was born in 1910. If I have met anyone older than her I'm unaware of it. [/quote]

I do.
I remember healthy WWII vets pushing around lawnmowers that were still strong and formidable.
But going back earlier.....I asked a man about his memories of the 19th century and he told me.
Another friend of mine was too old to serve in WWI!
He was a really fun guy with a good sense of humor. I have fond memories of him.
It staggers me a little bit to think about the passage of centuries. Humans live a long time.
