That amazes me every time I hear it. John Tyler was born in 1790...


He would have been 230 (!!) last month. How did he do it...

He had 8 kids with his first wife (she died in 1842)
Then he had 7 more with his second wife. One child was Lyon, born in 1853 when John was 63 and his wife was 33 (John went on to have two more kids when he was 65 and 70)

Lyon had three kids with his first wife, and three more with his second wife. Two of those last three are the two that are still alive (born in 1924 and 1928). So Lyon had them when he was ~71 and ~75. His wife was in her late 30s.
