Abraham, my version doesnt mention anything about children. Probably means it was incorrect as that is what ive found in this game.

Player #2823109, I used to visit family in Oswego (among other towns) back in the 90s. Will have to look for her grave if I ever get back to Upstate NY.

69 children! supposing she started at 12 years old and had 1 each year after that. that would put her at 81 years old when she had her last child. don't think that's even remotely possible.
