Oh, great.

Yeah.

Okay. What?

You know, I don't actually know how old my dad is.

Yeah. He might be one year older than or younger than what he is because sometimes in India they would just send kids off to school to just like get them out the house and go, you know, because he's one of seven kids. Yeah, sure. And so I think there's a chance that they might have said that he was a year older than he was so that he could start school. And now nobody has any way of verifying.

So I like this very much.

At this point, it's moot.

Yeah.

Oh, my gosh. You can't just be like, yeah, fine. You're the government. OK, fine. We'll go with 94.

Oh, man. I mean, do they know where she was born?

You know, even without the actual birth certificate, maybe there's other kinds of records that you can access, like at a hospital or something like that, if you know the hospital.

High school graduation documents.

And both of them are handwritten.

That's, uh, this is juicy.

No.

Okay, great.

Got it. What?

Yeah, just thinking about, you know, like the way names are changed at Ellis Island. You know, just the way that like one person who might have been sleepy, one social security, newly minted social security worker might have not had their coffee that morning. And the way a four might look. I'm just thinking about all the ways that things could go wrong with the system.

Yeah.

I don't think so. I don't think that, especially at that time, it would be lying about a child's age. In my imagination of this, it's the grand matriarch and she's giving the information. And, you know, like a proud mom might say, these are my children and these are their ages. And you would just tell the truth. You would just say, yeah, I have these 11 kids and here's how old they are.
