Question:I believe the oldest person in my family died at age 104.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I believe the oldest person in my family died at age 104.

Mine was a little over 104, but I don't think over 105.

B.S.! Other responses wee WAY more interesting than that one-liner you gave "best answer" to. I think that "Jerry D" and "GDar" are the same person, which violates Yahoo rules. Report It

    MY GRANDMA DIED AT 72 YUP AND IT HURT LIKE HELL IOVE THAT LADY SO MUCH R.I.P GRANDMA

    My great great grandmother died at the age of 106. She was, I believe, the first in her line to be born in the USA some time after her partents came here after the Napoleonic Wars were ended. She had so many descendents that after her own children she made no effort to remember names, and just called everyone "Steamboat".

    102. I've also had a 99.5!

    Mother's elder sister, died at 98...could still work the N.Y. Times crossword puzzle in ink.

    My grandma lived to be 95... I thought if anyone would have made it to 100, she would have. She's been gone 15 years now and I still really miss her. I sure would have asked her more questions if I would have known that her grandfather was going to be such a brick wall....

    My great-grandmother.

    She died 36 days before her 105th birthday.

    Grandmother 93 one of her brother's was 96 and her younger sister was 92. They were the longest living out of 7 brothers and 2 sisters

    It depends on where one draws the line for "family." One of my grandfaterhs lived to be 98 years, two months, and eleven days. Yes, I was counting! Two nieces of his, first cousins of my mother, lived to be 102 and 101. The latter of these, like the Queen Mum, lived in three centuries!

    My paternal grandmother was 96, her sister was 95,
    their father was 94, my mother is still alive and is 91

    That would be my great grandmother she was born in1899 and passed away last Oct she lived in the hills of Ky all her life married at the age 13 and had 14 children. We had 6 generations first born living at one time made the newspapers. She was full blooded Indian and was sharp as a tack to the end love ya mamaw D

    great grandma died at the age of 96
