2 wives, 87 children?

This is just crazy. Over the weekend and during a conversation with my skiing baddies Simran and Theoni, Simran mentioned the story of a woman who had 69 children!!! We couldn’t believe it so he just sent us the reference.

Apparently it’s a story from the 1800’s reported by multiple sources. It’s not 100% certain though.

This guy had two wives, the first of whom gave birth to 69 children: 4 x quadruples, 7 x triples, and 16 twins!
