    So she must have been pretty much constantly pregnant from age 15 - 21. I get that it’s a painting and not a photograph but she looks a lot older than 22. Also, why is the ad giving her street address?

      Newspapers used to give addresses as well. For people they interviewed, witnesses, even victims of crime. Give a listen to The Past Times. They read old timey newspapers and it’s a trip.

        Nearly all of the old ads are barely believable. It’s a whole different timeline - where the commons had no say.
