Lee, Actually, one of the weird patterns I've noticed on Pico is that women often had children up until their first grandchild was born. Late 40's was not uncommon to have children especially when there was no birth control. Some families had a dozen children spaced at 18-24 months apart. (Many women don't hit menopause until their 50's.)
Speaking as a woman, I'm so glad those days are gone. Let me know if I can be of further help.
