What was the age difference between Edgar and Virginia?greenspun.com : LUSENET : The Work of Edgar Allan Poe : One Thread |
Does anyone know the age difference between Virginia Clemm and EAP? I know that Virginia was barely 13 when Edgar and Virginia fell in love and decided on marriage, but how old was he at the time?
