Who is your oldest living blood relative?

Recommended Posts

Longevity is always something that has interested me. 

As far as I'm aware, my Grandad (last living grandparent) is my oldest blood relative, born in Feb 1934. He's in pretty good health, and both his mother and auntie lived to their early 90s so I hope he's going to be around a fair bit longer. Surprising considering he's smoked a pipe all through adulthood and drank pretty heavily at times.

By blood relative I mean not someone who married into your family.

My oldest living blood relatives aren't that old, probably mid 60s to mid 70s. My older family members have died off over the last decade, with most between living into their mid 80s to their mid 90s. Personally I'm hoping for at least 80 years and anything after that would be a great bonus.

How many years are you hoping for?
