If she is an 18th century personage, how can there be a photo of her? Something is wrong here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.43.141.84 (talk) 16:41, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I just checked the source. That's not Glory of the Morning. That's just a picture of a Ho-Chunk woman in traditional dress. I'm removing the image. Thanks for pointing that out, it actually hadn't occured to me. Asarelah (talk) 16:57, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The Wisconsin History site linked at the bottom of the page estimates the year of Glory of the Morning's birth to be around 1709 (chosen to lead her people around 1727 at the age of 18). This page lists her year of death as around 1832. This would make her age at that time around 123 years old. By comparison, the longest human lifespan (referenced as reliably sourced in Wikipedia) is that of Jeanne Calment of France (1875–1997), who lived to age 122 years, 164 days. Frankly, while this age is not out of the range of possibility, I am dubious of either the birth or death dates, or of the reliability of the stories surrounding either story. Does anyone have a source with more certainty of these dates? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C0:CA03:5910:FD2C:43AF:E41A:FE96 (talk) 01:45, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
