I don't get what's funny about this. He just said, "Here's a bit about my personality, desires, and the resources I bring to the table."

Yeah, is it that the ad exists? These were very common back then.

Hey. I'm looking for a lady of the widebottom persuasion.
Did he find a wife, or not?
Answered my own question. moelane.com/2017/06/20/adventures-in-research-tracking-down-the-19th-century-maine-guy-who-wanted-a-wife/
viila
We don't know whether it was because of this ad though. A lot can happen in the 5 years between 1865 and the 1870 census.
tangybreath
True but he had a 3 year old kid. Plus pregancy, say the kid was conceived 4 years ago. Thatd be about a year to meet and marry after the ad

I understand that young ladies should be discouraged from chasing waterfalls.

That’s what’s missing in my life, someone who wants to buy me waterfalls
JadawinUK
Don't go chasing them!
But clearly sticking to the rivers and the lakes that I’m used to is not getting me a man with 18 acres of land, 10 already sowed.
You are just after his first-rate buckwheat!
To be honest, I'm more keen on the bully potatoes.
Ah, if I only knew that women are after potatoes when I was young...

"in 1870 he was married to a Clara Morrison. They had three children, the oldest of which was 3 and the youngest a babe in arms"

Does the second sentence mean that the children all died? As in, the oldest lived to be 3 and the youngest died right after birth?

Some people just look like psychopaths when they force them selfs to smile with teeth. Can barely see 1/3rd of my front teeth at best.
0rpheus
Press you tongue against the back of your teeth when forcing a smile to make it appear real.
Tried, but still: Smiling + teeth = nono. Luckily, I have 'kind eyes' so I do get some "I'm gonna use this guy to get stuff" kind of pussy.

HugoCVD
They sure as fuck factually did back then, because a big lot of them didnt have it either.
Volcanuz
Has nothing to do with "looking good" if i am correct it was thought that bad teeth or missing teeth meant healthy or not to people. (1)
Missing teeth, tooth decay and all that would cause smells of shit and they still thought(well most people) that smell = disease (2)
i guess it was some what true but just not right on the money but commoners would believe the wivetales. (end)
idotherock
And waterfalls, right?
idiotn00b
Fun fact: in the 1800s a very common cause of death was misadventure in the pursuit of waterfalls.

OddiTea773
When i first met my Husband's grandfather he asked to see my teeth, i think as a joke. I smiled at him and he laughed and hugged me (1/2)
He didn't expect me to ask to see his. Some of the family were shocked that i would ask such a thing. But he found it hilarious.

I imagine before braces that was something worth stating.

As an adult who finally has enough money to do so, I desperately want braces but not sure if I can get invisible ones for my crazy teeth
The invisible ones also cost more even if you can have them like double
i was an asshole as a kid, got invisible ones but got the bright rubber bands for them so they were never invisible

This is also the period of time when you could just claim land. All you needed was hard work, you didn't have to buy it first.

SaintMaceToTheFace
Right. Damn
DisBean
It’s a little different if you have to clear the land by hand to claim it. It was an incentive to settle. Today, we are more industrialized
And have technology that makes life easy... plus the people- so the supply and demand is no longer there.
ThatFellaInMaine
As someone originally from Aroostook county, these values are still alive and well. Buying bread and butter is slang for making babies.
And having all your teeth is still a plus when looking for a dame.
So this ad could very well work today there?
I think you'd be swimming in pussy if you tried this ad in 2017.
Felderburg
Well, maybe replace Andy Johnson with the current president? Unless people really like the 17th president nowadays...
LookingLikeASnack
tbf his life expectancy was in the low 40s/ high 30s, given the time this ad was placed. He's middle-aged.
UnknownSquid
Lower life expectancy didn't mean people aged faster you know. Unless you're just using 'middle aged' in a really strange manner. : /
I was using it to mean someone who is in the middle of their expected lifespan. I guess I came off a bit foolish with that usage.
Ah ok then. Thinking more on it tho, this does make me wonder what exactly the term actually meant to people through-out history, if used.
SaucyFineBolognaFactory
Think most of those quoted life expectancies are 'at birth' and due to huge infant mortality rates. This dude could have been around a while

Parental abandonment and lack of proper values was not so frequent back then.

That was about middle age back then, since average life expectancy was around 40 years.

Yeah but there was also a war going on that kinda affect the rate.

That included deaths before the age of 10. If you lived past them, you were good for at least another 40 years.

I think that by 1865, with the quality of life improving and medicine improving and all that it's more like 60 or 70 years.

Median age of death was 38.3 in 1850. If you made it to age 10 you were expected to live to at least 58.
Whatyouregonnawannado
Wait wouldn't 38 be the average then? With the median being much higher?
xFryla
LOL 1865 aint the Middle Ages. Average life expectancy in the Netherlands in 1860 was 73 years.
Yeah but there was also this war going on that dropped the rate.
This was America, not Netherlands. And it was around the time of the American Civil War, which brought the average lifespan down.
KNDBS
Not really, while yes a easily curable disease could kill you back then, people usually lived quite longer than that.
It was the absurdly high child mortality rates that brought those numbers way down
Skittleballs
Nope. Child deaths and stillbirths drag those statistics down, but have no effect on the life expectancy of an 18yo.
It was around the time of the American Civil War, too. But, I didn't find anything for the adjusted rate. If you do, link it.

Hey. I'm looking for a lady of the widebottom persuasion.
LadyWidebottom
Did he find a wife, or not?
LadyWidebottom
Answered my own question. moelane.com/2017/06/20/adventures-in-research-tracking-down-the-19th-century-maine-guy-who-wanted-a-wife/
viila
We don't know whether it was because of this ad though. A lot can happen in the 5 years between 1865 and the 1870 census.
tangybreath
True but he had a 3 year old kid. Plus pregancy, say the kid was conceived 4 years ago. Thatd be about a year to meet and marry after the ad

I understand that young ladies should be discouraged from chasing waterfalls.

Don't go chasing them!

But clearly sticking to the rivers and the lakes that I’m used to is not getting me a man with 18 acres of land, 10 already sowed.

You are just after his first-rate buckwheat!

To be honest, I'm more keen on the bully potatoes.

"in 1870 he was married to a Clara Morrison. They had three children, the oldest of which was 3 and the youngest a babe in arms"

Does the second sentence mean that the children all died? As in, the oldest lived to be 3 and the youngest died right after birth?

Press you tongue against the back of your teeth when forcing a smile to make it appear real.

HugoCVD
They sure as fuck factually did back then, because a big lot of them didnt have it either.
Volcanuz
Has nothing to do with "looking good" if i am correct it was thought that bad teeth or missing teeth meant healthy or not to people. (1)
Volcanuz
Missing teeth, tooth decay and all that would cause smells of shit and they still thought(well most people) that smell = disease (2)
Volcanuz
i guess it was some what true but just not right on the money but commoners would believe the wivetales. (end)
idotherock
And waterfalls, right?
idiotn00b
Fun fact: in the 1800s a very common cause of death was misadventure in the pursuit of waterfalls.

When i first met my Husband's grandfather he asked to see my teeth, i think as a joke. I smiled at him and he laughed and hugged me (1/2)

He didn't expect me to ask to see his. Some of the family were shocked that i would ask such a thing. But he found it hilarious.

It’s a little different if you have to clear the land by hand to claim it. It was an incentive to settle. Today, we are more industrialized

tbf his life expectancy was in the low 40s/ high 30s, given the time this ad was placed. He's middle-aged.
UnknownSquid
Lower life expectancy didn't mean people aged faster you know. Unless you're just using 'middle aged' in a really strange manner. : /
LookingLikeASnack
I was using it to mean someone who is in the middle of their expected lifespan. I guess I came off a bit foolish with that usage.
UnknownSquid
Ah ok then. Thinking more on it tho, this does make me wonder what exactly the term actually meant to people through-out history, if used.

Think most of those quoted life expectancies are 'at birth' and due to huge infant mortality rates. This dude could have been around a while

Median age of death was 38.3 in 1850. If you made it to age 10 you were expected to live to at least 58.

This was America, not Netherlands. And it was around the time of the American Civil War, which brought the average lifespan down.

Not really, while yes a easily curable disease could kill you back then, people usually lived quite longer than that.

It was the absurdly high child mortality rates that brought those numbers way down

Nope. Child deaths and stillbirths drag those statistics down, but have no effect on the life expectancy of an 18yo.

It was around the time of the American Civil War, too. But, I didn't find anything for the adjusted rate. If you do, link it.
