The oldest person in the world in 2019 is a woman in Japan. She is 116! Crazy! What is keeping people alive so long? Any ideas? Just curious? My God, if my mom is alive that long I will surely be dead before her! There are YouTube videos of her telling about her life, interesting.
Methuselah
Said to have died at the age of 969, he lived the longest of all figures mentioned in the Bible. According to the Book of Genesis, Methuselah was the son of Enoch, the father of Lamech, and the grandfather of Noah.
Just sayin. My Lord, my God! Requires an answer.
Yeah, the biblical accounts blow my mind totally!
They have the birth certificates to verify it. Fascinating, isn’t it?
My son added two years on his own birth certificate so he could be 21 and drink.
Lol.
I did not like that at all.
Haha, not uncommon with kids his age. When I was young drinking age was 18 in Louisiana. I loved it because I loved music and I could go to clubs with my friends to hear my favorite bands. He’s young!
I wouldn't mind living long as long as I have quality of life. Once my quality life is gone then dig a hole and put me in it--I'm done. LOL!

Hubby’s great grandma lived to be just shy of 102! My cousin is 97 and doesn’t even use a cane! My uncle lived to be 96 and my mom is 93. Great aunts lived into their 90’s.
People are definitely living a long time!
Hahaha, thanks for the giggle!
Baptismal records are a good way to trace their history. There are interesting stories with baptismal records too though. In New Orleans where I live there were pages torn out of the records due to various circumstances.
Actually, the Mormon church has excellent genealogy records. Their research is incredible!
Amen! I want to go just like my sweet grandma did! Just dropped dead! She watched grandpa suffer and she begged God to have an easy death.
She was the most loving woman and funny as hell! If I told you some of her expressions you’d die laughing. But you’d have to be a southerner from New Orleans to truly appreciate her sense of humor.
