Paternal grandfather 1859 although he fibbed all his life and claimed to have been born in 1865, his brothers birth year.   Granny was born in 1872.  Grandpa died aged 97 granny at 101.

Maternal side much later 1871 and 1879.

Paternal grandfather born 1856. His age was different on every census but it's correct on his tombstone. His parents married 1840. His father was allegedly born in 1810. His mother didn't know when she was born.
Paternal grandmother b. 1867 (late enough for an Irish birth certificate, so I can claim to be officially Irish).
They both married twice. Granddad's eldest son from his 1st marriage served in WW1.
Grandma's eldest grandson was born 1920 and served in WW2.

Maternal granddad born 1889. Served in WW1.
Maternal grandmother born 1894. She survived Spanish 'flu at end of war. Her dad signed up for the Boer War and was discharged unfit 18 months later. He probably wasn't fit for WW1. Her uncle had been a professional soldier. He was in Boer War and joined up again for WW1. That makes 3 generations of my family in WW1.

Am I on the shortlist for oldest grandparent?

Do you have proof👻

Hmm,

If your ? is directed at JenB.....

I suggest you read her history on helping others with genealogy queries & that's got to be the strangest question to an experienced RC'r I've ever read 

I will answer for her, yes she will have proof

I'm a bit confused as to actual dates referring to 'Victorian' times.

According to Mr Google that would be 20 Jun 1837 - 22 Jan 1901.

So, going by those dates (her reigning years)....

Paternal G/mother b 1882 (Only g/parent I ever knew)
Paternal G/father b 1888

Maternal G/father b 1896
Maternal G/mother b 1901 (Nov which was after QV's reign)

All, apart from my paternal g/mother were deceased prior to when I was born (many yrs later)
