OK, Wikipedia says she was a 50 yo widow with two children. And mentions that he moved his family (including kids?) to a different area at age 25. If she had her children in her 20s, then they were likely older than him.
imagine your friend from highschool comes over and bangs your mom and you have to call him dad
I think we should primarily assume he was familiar with at least certain applications of statistics, and note that a 50 year old woman in 1730 is more appropriately considered a GMILF

So he was groomed. Not cool.
Was he actually? Was it someone like a teacher of his? Or a boss?
Because an age gap like that doesn’t automatically mean grooming. I dated someone who was 42 at 19, who I met at 19, and I’m the one that made the first move, and courted them, because I was interested in them. They didn’t have kids though, but that’s still much older than me.
A 19 year old guy is old enough to make his own decisions.
If he did it for love, bravo! Love seems rare. Glad he found it.
