I know. You cannot see it.
It's two photos. I am scanning all the old family photos and there is a photo of my nephew (aged 5) and a photo of his great great Grandad (aged 5) and it looks like the same person.

Possibly but also very possibly not: coal miners were in a "reserved occupation" so were not called up; and some of the many who volunteered were sent back to their pits when it was realised that they were worth more digging coal than digging trenches. -- Robin reply to address is (meant to be) valid |

a photo of my nephew (aged 5) and a photo of his great great Grandad (aged 5) and it looks like the same person. Subject to my faults in my rapidly deteriorating mental arithmentic that means the *average* age of the parent when each generation was born was 21. They didn't hang about in your family. -- Robin reply to address is (meant to be) valid |

Indeed many miners volunteered as they thought fighting a war had better conditions than coal mining. I would have to check to see if he was or was not. -- Adam |

That is 5 years longer than the Barnsley average:-) It was quite common in those day AFAIK. There was not the availablity to the pill until my Mums generation (and then you could only get it if you were married). But I suspect your mental arithmetic is wrong and you have added a generation in your calculation:-) Jim 5 was in 1905. William was born in 1919, Jim aged 19 when Robert was born. Robert was born in 1944, William aged 25 when Robert was born. Daniel was born in 1972, Robert aged 27 when Daniel was born Thomas was born in 2006, Daniel aged 35 when Thomas was born At a rough guess with the dates of their bithdays. But I am knackered so I could be wrong! William and Thomas are first borns (info that makes a difference as to the the age of the parent) -- Adam |

generation in your calculation:-) Sorry, yes, I divided by the N generations rather than N-1. -- Robin reply to address is (meant to be) valid |
