My grandpa on my mom’s side was born in 1921 in what is now known as Slovakia.
I was lucky to have had him for as long as I did. He passed away at 91 years of age.
I never knew my grandad or grandma on my dad’s side. He had a massive stroke before I was born.
He was a mean person my dad said.

All 4 of my grandparents (now deceased) were born in the late 1800s. Those of you with grandparents born in the 1920s are just youngsters! My parents were born earlier than that! LOL


Then I probably shouldn't tell you that mine were born in 1938 and 1940 lol.


That’s when your grandparents were born??? Holy Cow. That means I’m almost old enough to be your grandmother!! LOL. You are just a young whipper snapper, compared to a lot of us. smile

My father's mother was born is Rehoboth DE in 1911. She lived to 104. I am only 35 years old though, so its quite a span of years.

One Grandma born In 1939 and the other I’m pretty sure was born in 1940 or 41. Both are still alive and live at home.

My maternal Grandfather was born in I think 1897. Served in WWI as what he called a safety officer. He basically packed wounded back to where an ambulance could get to. He volunteered and joined the 364th field hospital when it was being commissioned in Portland. When I was little he seemed really grumpy and a bit off. I look back on it and think he might have had PTSD.
