I have a brother who is in his mid 40's who just became a great-grandfather

[Kaleva]

It's not that he started out really, really young but he married a woman older then he and who had children close to his own age that he adopted. It's quite feasable he could live to be a great-great-great-grandfather.

Does this make me a great-grand uncle? At the age of 54?

1. I went to high school with my niece.

The looks on her friends faces were priceless.

PS: Yes, that makes you a great-grand uncle.

3. My daughter went to school with her niece.

My mother had my sister just a year before my daughter was born.

4. In my case it was a 4 day difference.

I also have a nephew 3 years older than me who was a bit of a troublemaker. I had the same 4th grade teacher as he did and heard about him that year on a fairly regular basis.

5. I have an aunt 3 years younger then me.

10. Wouldn't that be her aunt?

Sorry if I'm missing something obvious or just being stupid.... I'm still half-asleep

2. Damn, somebody robbed the cradle.

Not that I'm one to talk, I was about two seconds away from having a relationship with a woman 22 years my elder. That was years ago, if the same situation now, I probably would have been no seconds away and gone for it.

6. My great-grandfather fought in the Civil War.

Born in 1840.

We have the opposite problem in my family. Men who have children very late.

Minor quibble: Your brother is a STEP great-grandfather.

A friend years ago married quite young, had a child, that child had a child at around 20 years old. My friend re-married, and had a child younger than his grandchild.

7. A couple of President Tyler's grandchildren are still alive.

8. Not quite that impressive, but impressive nonetheless ....

A woman I worked with in the early '90s had a father who was 75 when she was born, her mother was 25. He was born in 1867, and had become a local landowner, and therefore a catch, of sorts. He lived into his 90s and saw her into adulthood.

In more recent years, I wondered more in those pre-Viagra times if these women old husbands were having some other, um, friends.

9. Well he could be his own grandpa.....
