Jonathan Perry - How was it that Joseph W. Perry born when his mother was over 50?

Yes...

How do you get over 50? I don't have a definite name (FNU - first name unknown) and I've only got a circa death date... She might have been 15 - might have been 50...
I haven't got enough definite source information to do any better then what's there...
I need to try and dig through some old chancery suits and see if I can dig up more but for now - that's just all I've got to go on...

Joseph is my 4th great uncle - I've figured out where you connect up down his line...

I've sent you family and collaboration requests... Once you are connected up you can see better what info I do have on the Perry lines...

I think that Jonathan Perry was born around 1780, and his wife around that time too.
