There are 3 nonagenarians who are direct ancestors but many more who are grand Uncles/Aunts etc. Going back further, My Great Great Great Grandfather lived until he was 92 (born in 1700s and died 1800s), which I think was pretty good for those times!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636761469099608281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410794479676555766.post-88273181090576786912013-11-04T20:46:27.561+11:002013-11-04T20:46:27.561+11:00It is a bit morbid but it is part of my history an...It is a bit morbid but it is part of my history and therefore interesting to me anyway.<br /><br />For some time I have been ordering a couple of certificates every month for my direct ancestors. It is amazing how many times that dates handed down through the family have been wrong. Australian Certificates include a lot of useful information.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636761469099608281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410794479676555766.post-20311384138466805412013-11-04T20:40:56.971+11:002013-11-04T20:40:56.971+11:00Thank you for reading Pauleen.

Although some ages may not appear to be that old, when considering the times, less medical interventions, those ages seem pretty good. It is always interesting to know these diseases in families. My readings indicate direct links to mother and father are the most important, that the gene pool tends to dilute. But then in my own family, maternal side, I have seen similar medical conditions. Mom's Alzheimer's was something new, never before in the family; ; she died suddenly at only 80 a blessing shortly after the diagnosis; there is a lot of longevity in the family but the senility, dementia and A did not exist before, so how to explain that. It's what makes ancestry, geneaology and research so interesting.

On my mom's side, it's easy for her, most of her siblings.At first, I thought of this chart as morbid, but then I thought how knowing my mom's side made my husband and me to change our eating habits.Nonniehttp://nonniesobservations.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410794479676555766.post-30601333474452524992013-11-04T00:15:35.607+11:002013-11-04T00:15:35.607+11:00great idea Sharon and interesting insights.
