Oldest Mother - Historical/Biblical references A number of reference to aged mothers can be found in the Bible, where Sarah is described as having given birth to her husband Abraham's son, Isaac, at the age of 90. Samuel is born to the sterile Hannah after a lengthy period of infertility. The story of the birth of John the Baptist likewise features an older mother whom many thought would never conceive. An unverified record is that of Margaret Krasiowa (1655-1763) of Konin, Poland, who is said to have married her third husband in her 94th year of life and borne two sons and a daughter by him during their 14 years of marriage.[1]
