Christopher Columbus, the greatest Democrat of them all.
He left not knowing where he was going, and when he got there he did not know where he was. He returned not knowing where he had been, and did it all on someone else's money.

Haven’t a clue. Never met him, he lived in Chile when he passed in ‘66
I figure it must predate 1900, as from what my mom said, living through the hell of WWI is what turned him into an alcoholic.

Mine would be 110 years old, and I remember his 49th birthday and how old I thought he was then.
A lifetime is short, and the hell of it is you don't grasp that until you realize you might have 15 years left to do the things you love, if you're lucky.
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

My dad’s dad was born in 1877 and was 83 when he died. He was 53 when my dad was born and my dad was the youngest of 15 children. I was about 9 when he died and I just barely remember him.

Not sure about maternal but I'm guessing he'd be about the same age, maybe a couple of years younger, than my paternal one.
If he was still alive he'd be coming up on 143 years old.

Pastor Herbert Hackbarth would be about 118 years old today, iirc! He passed away while I was in B2/75 , 1979! We were transitioning our training then , hostage rescue, raid type, scenarios, urban guerilla warfare. My Grandma called the company and berated 1SGT Voyles ! I could not get leave to go to funeral (did not really want to either) and boy oh boy did I do some pushups that week!

He'd be 112 now if he was still alive. He went way too soon back in 1972. I still miss him. My maternal great grandmother outlived him. She was born in 1888 and died in 1991.

145 or 146 I guess, though basically every document that identifies his bday says something different.
