Where did you get that information? That just doesn't seem probable to me. I like this site for the way it figures ages then: http://www.hyw.com/books/history/Fertilit.htm
If you get make to 10, then your will probably live to 42. If you live to 20, then you'll probably make it to 45, etc.
This way of figuring makes more sense than averages during a time when record-keeping pretty much only involved keeping up with land owners—most people NOT being land owners.
Anyway, I'm just looking for a good argument. I miss sparring with you. :)
Put those 2 together and you have my age.

I got the information off the internet, always a reliable source of information.

I don't remember exactly where. Sorry, no verification for this. Good thing this isn't a "real" publication.
