If you assembled birth year sets for your family, what years would they include?

When I use "family" I mean you, your spouse, your kids, your grand kids, your parents and your grandparents [a max of five linear generations].
For me it would be:
Grandkids - none [that I know of];
Kids - 1991 and 1993;
Me - 1956;
Spouse - 1958;
Mother - 1920;
Father - 1926;
Paternal Grandfather - [do not remember but probably the 1870's or 1880's];
Paternal Grandmother - [do not remember but probably the 1880's];
Maternal Grandfather - 1860; and
Maternal Grandmother - 1875.
Putting together birth year sets for my older "kin" would be fun and if MS was the goal for the sets, would be very hard to do.
Your turn.

Already put together a 100 year date set for my daughter (1908 had more interesting coinage than 2008).

When I think of worthy distractions to my current Merc Set, this is certanly one of them...then I go play the lotto...again.
