It's interesting to see what the Scriptures in
the Bible have to say about "Long Life" and "How to Attain It". |
|
EXODUS 20:12
Honour thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon
the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. |
|
EPHESIANS 6:2-3
Honour thy father and mother; which is the
first commandment with promise; That it may be well with thee,
and thou mayest live long on the earth. |
|
PSALMS 91:1, 16
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall
abide under the shadow of the Almighty. With long life
will I satisfy him, and shew him My salvation |
|
PSALMS 34:12-14
What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he
may see good? Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from
speaking guile. Depart from evil and do good; seek peace
and pursue it. |
|
PROVERBS 3:1-2
My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my
commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace,
shall they add to thee. |
|
DEUTERONOMY 30:19-20
... I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest
obey His voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto Him: for he is
thy life, and the length of thy days. |
|
PSALMS 90:10
The days of our years are threescore years and ten (3 x 20 = 60
+ 10 = 70); and if by reason of strength they become fourscore
years (4 x 20 = 80) |
|
|
GOD says in Psalms 91 that those who dwell in His secret place
(or in His presence) will be satisfied with 'long life".
He further states in Psalms 90 that those who walk in a "right
relationship" with Him will live to be 70 years old - and some
even to 80 years old. |
|
|
|
I thought it would be
interesting to pull together the information for
those who lived to be 80 years old or older.
If you're
aware of someone else in the family that has lived to be 80 and
they aren't listed below, please let me know. |

The LOFTINS |
|
|
The oldest "Matriarch" in the Catawba County
Loftin Lineage is
Frances Elizabeth Fisher. She married
James Franklin Loftin in 1847 and he was killed seventeen
years later in 1864, during the Civil War. Frances, or
Franky, was born 08 Aug 1826 to
Reuben & Mary Fisher and lived to the age of 91, almost 92.
She died on 24 Jun 1918. |
|
Only two of James Franklin & Franky's children lived to the age
of 80 or above.
William Alexander Loftin lived to the age of 87 while his
sister
Mary Frances Loftin (Mrs. Jacob Francis Drum) lived to the
age of 80. |
|
Three daughters of
Mary Frances Loftin Drum also lived beyond
the age of 80. Etta May Drum lived to the age of 89, Lula
Elizabeth Drum lived to the age of 92 and Antha Pearl Drum lives
to the age of 81. |
|
Only one of William Alexander Loftin's seven children lived to
the age of 80. His daughter,
Cordie Bland Loftin Wilson (Mrs. Thomas Wilson) lived to the
age of 87. He did, however, have ten grandchildren that
lived to 80 and above. |
|
|
William Alexander Loftin |
|
William Alexander "Alec" Loftin is the oldest "Patriarch" in
the Catawba County Loftin Lineage. Alec was the son of
James Franklin Loftin and
Frances Elizabeth Fisher. He lived to the age of 87.
It's interesting, too, that his mother, Frances, lived almost to
the age of 92. |
|

Alec holding Pearl, Lee, Laura holding Cordie, Frances, Alonzo,
Zettie and Cornelia |
|
|
From all available evidence, it seems that
the original Methodist Church in Catawba was called Smyrna. As a
young man Alec was a member of the Smyrna Society in 1868 and
1869 and continued there at least through 1877. Class
papers for Smyrna (1872 & 1873) indicate that Alec was "single"
and a "Believer". |
|
In 1875, Alec married
Laura
Rossie Cranford, the daughter of
Rev.
Manley Wilson Cranford and
Mary Martha Lomax
. |
|
In 1887 Alec,
along with his brother-in-laws, Gilbert McKinnis and Preacher
Francis “Fitze” Drum, decided a church was needed in the Catawba
County community where they lived, so they called for a meeting
at Walden School House. Many of the people in the
community were part of the congregation at
Shiloh, a Methodist Episcopal Church, and there was friction
dating from the War Between the States (Civil War). Response to the
meeting was encouraging and a brush arbor was constructed near
the site where
Center Methodist Church
now stands. |
|
Later as the
church grew, people donated wood and their time to build a
church. The construction of
Center Methodist Church took
place in June of 1890. William Alexander was elected one
of the leaders of the church. Francis Drum was asked to be
the song leader, but declined, saying he preferred that Alec do
it. Alec loved to sing and usually sang as he walked to
church with his children. |
|
Alec loved Campmeeting and attended the
Balls Creek Campground
just like his father before him. It was, and still is, a typical
Methodist campground with an open-air wooden arbor in the center
of the property. Alec greeted his kin in
the tent his father had raised in the 1850s. |
|
|
Lois Virginia Loftin Mundy |
|
Our oldest Loftin relative to date was
Lois Loftin Mundy, age 106, who passed away on 04 Jun 2015. Lois
was
the daughter of
Arthur Lee Loftin & Josephine Gilleland
and the granddaughter of
William Alexander Loftin &
Laura Rossie
Cranford. |

Loftin, Ray Loftin, Bernice Loftin Gilmer,
Helen Loftin White, Oda Bell Stewart Loftin, Preston Mundy, Glenn Loftin, Loise
Loftin Mundy, Coyte Loftin and Kathleen Morrow Loftin |
|
|
Lois loved church and recounted to Curtis Loftin how she had
been saved as a child of 12-years-old. She said that a preacher had
preached about the Second Coming of Christ and she had a hard time
sleeping at night after that - eventually giving her heart to
the Lord. She always had a desire to be a missionary but
felt she couldn't since she had never gone to college - only
completing high school. She eventually did become a "Lay
Person" in the Methodist church and was allowed to preach at
several Methodist churches in Catawba and surrounding counties.
One of her sermons was entitled, "Are the Days of Revival
Over?". Lois played the piano at both
Center
and
Shiloh
Methodist Churches for many years. |
|
Lois said that when she was a little girl, her family attended
Center Methodist Church in Catawba County, NC. The church
had two doors on the two sides of the church - one for the men
and one for the women. She also said that when people
entered the church that the men would sit together on the left
side of the church while the women would sit on the right side. |
|
I once asked her what she attributed to such a long life and she
said, she didn't ever smoke, drink, or "run around".
Lois continued to live in her own home, all alone after the
death of her husband, until the age of 102. At that time
she removed to Abernathy Memorial where she died on 04 Jul 2015
at the age of 106. |
|
In addition to Lois, her three sisters all lived beyond the age
of 80.
Marie lived to the age of 104 but passed away on 01 Jul
2015,
Bernice lived to the age of 96 and was just one month shy of
being 97 before her death, and youngest sister
Helen lived to the age of 88 before passing away in 2014
after a fall.
That's really amazing that all four sisters were blessed with
such long life. |
|
PROVERBS 10:27
The reverence of the LORD prolongs days, but the
years of the wicked will be shortened. |

This is what the LORD told King Solomon after
he had become King of Israel: |
|
I KINGS 3:14
If you will walk in My ways, to keep My statutes
and My commandments, as your father David walked, then I shall
lengthen your days. |
|
Even though I Kings 3:3 tells us that "Solomon
loved the LORD",
we learn that eventually King Solomon did not continue to walk
in the LORD's ways, and he died at the age of fifty-seven. |

|
The GOBLES |
|
|
The information that I've collected on the
Goble Family over the
years, goes back to
William Goble (1540 - 01 May 1593) in Albingbourne, England. Of the 13 ancestors I've identified
who lived to the age of 80 or above, nine of them are male and
only four are female.
Martin Luther Goble (son of
Jacob Hedrick Goble) lived to be the oldest, at the age of almost 91. |
|
|
|
Martin Luther Goble |
|
Martin Luther Goble (son of
Jacob Hedrick Goble &
Frances
Elizabeth Douglas) is the oldest Goble Family member that I have
found thus far. Martin lived to be almost 92 years old.
In addition to Martin making the 80+ Year Old List, so did five
of his children - accounting for six of the thirteen individuals
on the list. His daughter
Willie lived to be 88+, son
J.C.
lived to the age of 88, daughter
Helen lived to the age of 86,
daughter
Elgevia lived to the age of 85+, and son
James/Leggs
lived to the age of 83. |
|
(Top Row) Nessie, Martin and
James Henry/Leggs; (Bottom Row) Willie, Elgevia (holding Bud
Goble) and Helen |
|
|
Martin & Nessie Johnson
Goble |
|
|
|
|
Willie Aleen Goble Loftin |
|
Of all the Gobles information I've checked,
Willie Alleen Goble
Loftin lived to be the oldest female, at the age of 89+. Willie
was the daughter of
Martin Luther Goble and
Beulah Vernesta
Johnson and the wife of
Sam William Loftin. |

The SETZERS |
|
|
The
Setzer Family line has been traced by as far as Johannes
Adam Setzer from Heidelberg, Germany. |
|
|
|
Johannes Adam Setzer |
|
The Patriarch of the Setzer Family,
Johannes Adam Setzer, was born about 1710 and died about
1808, and was one of the oldest living Setzers, at the age of
about 98. |
|
|
|
Jacob Lanier Setzer |
|
Jacob Lanier Setzer, the son of
John Setzer I and Catherine Bushart Barringer, was born 04
Oct 1804 and died 10 Dec 1891 - living to the age of 87.
In addition to Jacob, his brother David lived to the age of 84
and his brother Paul lived to the age of 99 (the oldest Setzer
thus far). Three of Jacob's children lived to be older
than 80. They were
William Able Setzer age 89, Ann Catherine Setzer age 80, and
Patrick Sylvanus Setzer age 79 11/12.
William Able Setzer had two children who lived beyond age 80
- George Pinkney Setzer age 92 and William Lester Setzer age 80.
Patrick Sylvanus Setzer had three children who lived beyond
age 80 -
Jacob Eli Setzer age 84,
Ida Lillian Setzer age 80, and
Daisy McNeill Setzer age 96. Their mother
Margaret Ann Elizabeth Witherspoon Setzer lived to the age
of 87.
Daisy McNeill Setzer was the oldest living female Setzer
I've found. |

Jacob Lanier Setzer age 87,
Patrick Sylvanus Setzer age 79 and Daisy McNeill Setzer Sigmon
age96 |

The JOHNSONS |
|
|
The Johnson branch of the family has been harder to research,
which you can tell judging from the small number of Johnsons I
have listed that lived over 80 years old. The earliest
Johnson I have found for our family was
Robert Johnson. |
|
|
|
Robert Johnson |
|
Robert Johnson is the Patriarch of this branch of the
family. As of January 2014 I have found no ancestry any
further back than him. Robert was married to Mary
Wilkinson and had at least 10 children. |
