Lincoln Family : Premodern Lifespans


Here is the Lincoln Family
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_family


Footnote 11 Grzyb, Frank L. (2013). Hidden History of Rhode Island and the Civil War. The History Press. p. 17. ISBN 978-1-62619-231-7.

I will impose two limitations on the material given by the wiki.

1) only premodern, that is for US, none born after the civil war
2) consistent ancestor bias, there are a different statistics if you include children who died too early to become parents (including a married couple dying early) and one cannot do that up to the president, so I am not doing it after either.
