Average life expextancy in 1812 was 32 years.

Average life expectancy AT BIRTH in 1812 was 32 years.

Survive childhood and the life expectancy of an adult is much higher.

Don't have 1812 data handy, but
in 1850 a 20 year old could expect an additional 40.1 years.
in 1900 a 20 year old could expect an additional 42.2 years.
in 1950 a 20 year old could expect an additional 49.5 years.
in 2000 a 20 year old could expect an additional 55.7 years.

That's about a 15 year improvement, the same table shows a 36 year improvement for expectation at birth.

FWIW, YMMV...
