Oldest Parent-Child Lifespans - Lists https://globalsupercentenarianforum.com/index.php/community/lists/oldest-parent-child-lifespans/ A community for fans of supercentenarians! en-US Tue, 18 Aug 2026 18:23:38 +0000 wpForo 60 RE: Oldest Parent-Child Lifespans https://globalsupercentenarianforum.com/index.php/community/lists/oldest-parent-child-lifespans/paged/3/#post-46448 Sat, 15 Aug 2026 03:21:56 +0000 This doesn't reach any cutoff, but I found this family impressive (father and two daughters):

 

Eugene Plummer (9 Aug 1894 - 12 Mar 1997) - 102 years, 215 days

Lorraine Scott (19 May 1918 - 27 Jul 2026) - 108 years, 69 days

Zenobia Shields (25 Aug 1920 - 19 Jun 2024) - 103 years, 298 days

 

The father Eugene Plummer claimed to have been born in 1885 in the SSDI, but early life records support August 1894.

A few years ago, I couldn't have imagined there would soon be a Hungarian 215+ duo (which is the cutoff age on the GW page). Congratulations to them! 🌺
