re: 1883 started today (season long thread, spoilers)

She was 17 in 1883

She was born 1 year after her father returned home from the civil war she said

The boy was 5 in 1883, so born in 1878

The boy is his grandfather and tim is his great grandfather

So if John Jr is 70 that means he was born in 1951. That would make John Sr 73 years old when he was born.

Problem with that is we already saw John Jr have a conversation with his dad when his dad was 90. With the above dates, that would have put John Jr at 17 when that convo took place.

We already had flashback scenes were Josh Lucas playing the “young” John Jr, so the convo on the rock was well past that.
