An aunt by marriage's mother lived to be 102. When she was about 100 I said to my aunt something to the same effect and my aunt said her mother paid "very little attention to the news" and just took care of the family. So she had no opinion on the inventions that came along her lifetime, etc.

Love this page! I share your photos all the time! Come and join and share history!
Yes I can! Did anyone write her stories down?
For the record, this lady had nothing to do with the US. She is my relative and lived and died in England. I found her while doing my family tree. Her sister, Philadelphia ( a commonish name in Sussex) DID emigrate to the US in the 1800'sand settled their with her husband and family. Rebecca was not wealthy, I have a photo of the little house she lived in at the end of her life.x
