Attorney General for England (and Wales) - Wikipedia

The list only gives years of service, from which the year of birth is always excluded, and since the office may be left before death, the death year could be excluded as well.

This means, the following only covers the ones that have articles of their own. From these I have copied the following, and the ones that only give death year are not part of the statistics. But the majority have both years.

Minimum, 45, LQ 59, Med 65-67, HQ 74-75, alt 74, Max 84.* For Sir William Babington (c. 1370 – 1454). Note, none of his successors from 1500 to 1700 survived his age. Unless some whose age I could not know from the wiki.

Median 65 to 67 is somewhat higher than usual for non-military** occupations, but not by much. 65 is more usual.

PS, it seems that Russia was having a lower life expectancy in the Soviet years and in the early post-Soviet years:

Among the most serious findings is a four year drop in life expectancy among Russian men since 1980, from 62 years to 58.

Life expectancy of Russian men falls to 58

However, one must keep in mind, this statistic, while all male, presumably includes new born men, while the statistics I glean from wikipedia systematically ignore and have to ignore child mortality./HGL

PPS, even so stats would be to the detriment of Russia, if life expectancy were counted from conception : it has had one of the highest abortion rates in Europe and in the world./HGL

* 36 is divided into these quarters, meaning, each except minimum and maximum is from two place values, those of places 9 and 10, of places 18 and 19 and of places 27 and 28. When the value for both numbers is the same, only that one is given. When it's different, either you make a medium by (a+b)/2 = m, or you give both values, which I do. With "alt" I mean that in the lower alternative for nonunivocal ages, both 27 and 28 read 74, while the higher alternative gives the span 74-75.
