craddle-robbers, ahoy!
Okay, so. Inspired by recent conversations that stem from the fact that Sturgis' girlfriend is 27, I decided to see what the age difference is between the couples at FTH.
So I pulled up the Dates of Importance page and only grabbed couples who are both in play at the moment. And realized that there's some I need to remove, lol, so ... uh. IGNORE THAT PART.
ANYWAY. I went with couples that are either married, dating, or just been couple-y-ish lately.
What I found:
Closest in age: Peter Pettigrew and Modesty Rabnott (Peter is older by one day) Runners up (within a month): Douglas and Sarah Cornfoot (Sarah is older by 5 days); Edgar and Calypso Bones (Calypso is older by 27 days)
Farthest apart in age: Angus MacDougal and Lydia Townsley (Angus is older by 676 years, 5 months, 20 days) Runners up: Nicholas Harrow and Morgan MacDougal (Nicholas is older by 416 years, 5 months, 30 days)
Non-Vampire farthest apart in age: Gawain Robards and Nora Alderton (Gawain is older by 18 years, 8 months, 17 days) Runners up (9 years or more): Sirius Black and Iona Cornfoot (Iona is older by 15 years, 10 months, 30 days); Patrice Nott and Mina Alderton (Patrice is older by 14 years, 4 months, 19 days; the Alderton girls like them aged like fine wine?); John Dawlish and Dorcas Meadowes (John was older by 10 years, 21 days); Sturgis Podmore and Caoimhe Sullivan (Sturgis is older by 9 years, 10 months, 4 days); Benjy Fenwick and Greta Catchlove (Benjy was older by 9 years, 5 months, 28 days); Patrice and Lucia Nott (Patrice is older by 9 years, 3 months, 30 days); Isidore and Honoria Mulciber (Isidore is older by 9 years, 3 months, 3 days)
Other Random Bits:
Two couples have the same number for the year, month, and day age difference in their respective relationship: Rufus Scrimgeour and Joanna Podmore: 7 years, 7 months, 7 days (Rufus) Giles and Sloane Vaisey: 5 years, 5 months, 5 days (Giles)
Two couples have the exact same age difference: Caradoc Dearborn and Charity Burbage: 2 years, 2 months, 4 days (Charity) Peadar MacDougal and Dorcas Meadowes: 2 years, 2 months, 4 days (Dorcas)
Of the 35 couples looked at, 13 consist of older-woman-younger-man. Largest age difference for that is Iona and Sirius; smallest is Sarah and Douglas.
