My Parents' 76 Descendants

The birth of a great-nephew (son of a nephew) Finn James C. last week has prompted me to do a recount of my parents' descendants.

Edward John Horgan and Hannah Olive O'Dea married on 6 April 1937. 

• 1st generation - 7 children, 6 females and 1 male all of whom married and had children. Current age range 71 - 83 , a twelve year spread
• 2nd generation - 27 grandchildren, 15 females and 12 males, current age range 36 -55, a nineteen-year spread, 20 of these grandchildren have had children
• 3rd generation - 42 gt-grandchildren, 20 females and 22 males, current age range 5 days to 26 yrs., a twenty-six year spread.

Geographical distribution

South Australia    62

Queensland    6

Northern Territory    5

New South Wales    1

England    2

Interesting to note the second-eldest grandchild, the first male grandchild, was born on January 5th and the newest gt-grandchild, a male, number 76 in the descendants' list was born last week on January 5th. 

Those born since my February 2016 update, Lena 2016, Jacob 2017, Hannah 2017, Hugo 2018, Ned 2019, Finn 2022.

As yet none of the 42 gt grandchildren have either married or had children.
