Bizarre Couples

#1 Postby southerngale » Sat Mar 13, 2004 12:19 pm

Fabien Pretou, standing at 6ft, 2 inches tall, towered over
his 3ft, 1 inch bride Natalie Lucius at their 1990 wedding
in Seysinnet-Pariset, France.

Harry Stevens, 103, married his 84-year-old cousin, Thelma
Lucas, at a Wisconsin retirement home in 1984.

In 1871, Captain Martin van Buren Bates married Anna Hanen
Swan in London. She was 7ft 5 1/2 inches tall and he stood
at 7ft 2 1/2 inches.

When Ruth and Kevin Kimber married in 1990, she was 93 and
he was 28.

In 1863, American dwarf Charles S. Stratton married Lavinia
Warren. He was 2ft, 10in tall and she was 2ft 8 in. In 1884,
the widowed Lavinia married Count Primo Magri who was two
inches shorter than her first husband.

In 1995, following a courtship that lasted several months,
100-year-old Samuel Bukoro married 12-year-old Nyamihanda
in Uganda.

In 1994, 26-year-old Anna Nicole Smith tied the knot with
89-year-old millionaire J. Howard Marshall. She was
attracted by his "kindness."

I wouldn't worry about the cousins too much. At their ages there's little chance of inbreeding.

When Ruth and Kevin Kimber married in 1990, she was 93 and
he was 28.

So now he visits his wife regularly in a nursing home? :wink: Then again she'd be 106 now.
