Did you read that the US is still giving benefits to a dependent of a Civil War veteran?
She was born when her dad was 86! And that was pre-little blue pill!! Impressive!
More likely someone else did the honors while marrying her to the vet to get her the money.
Scams like that have a long history.
Some of my earliest memories are memories of my Great Grandmother who was a Civil War widow and died at the age of 105. She was born in 1840 and passed away in 1945.
