we were lucky to have five until a few years ago... we now have four :-)

Re: 4 Generation Families?
 

Of the known 4 male generations in my family,
not one has ever met his grandfather. 111 years between the birth of the 1st to the last.
(1) born 1820, died 1871.
(2) born 1852, died 1916.
(3) born 1904, died 1996.
(4) born 1931, still dodging coffins, last of the male line.

Retlaw.

Re: 4 Generation Families?
 

I never met any of my grandparents, My dad was nearly 50 when they had me ( mum was 40).

However on Julies side, Siobhan has a great grandma! :D In fact Siobhans Great grandma on one side is only 6 weeks older than grandma on the other!

Re: 4 Generation Families?
 

As Ian has said there are 4 on my side of the family.

When my niece was born there were 5, my great gran, my gran, my mum, my sister and her daughter (my niece).

Unfortunatley my great gran died a week after my niece was born.

Maddie and Zack do have a Great Granddad on Chris' side and they both met their Great Grandma on my side but she passed away three years ago so they didn't have enough time with her.

Re: 4 Generation Families?
 

My children have there mum/dad, grandad/ and great nanna and great grandad still around, so yes four generations.
