Hi John
The Emeny's seemed to have genes for long living - my husband's great grandmother was an Emeny and she lived for 103 1/2 years! She was a wonderful old lady and had four children. I have a book on the Emeny's which is a mine of info. She was 99 years older than our daughter (her great great grand daughter) - I thought she might arrive on Gt Gran's birthday but was 4 days later! I am pretty sure all the Emeny's in NZ are related.
Cheers
