Message Board Post:
Thank you so much! I should have known better myself!
Yes, Catherine had a penchant for pulling new ages out of the hat, however she died first
and on their his-and-her tombstone John had the pleasure of having carved the worst date
of all, which made her at least seven years older than him! But then there is a family
legend that he emigrated to escape her and she followed him here, and he felt obliged to
marry her.
Thanks again.
