My great-grandmother was a farmer's wife who worked in the fields. She wore pants.

I find this very implausible. My great-grandmother was still alive when I was young, and I assume I am roughly the same age as you. She was a farmer's wife and still lived on a farm where she had a coal stove, a small orchard and was raising several grandchildren into her nineties. She never wore pants until the day she died.

You didn't know my great-grandmother. She kept a seven bedroom farmhouse on over 40 acres, milked cows, did the chickens, etc. The orchards actually belonged to her sister, but I think the orchards were bigger than the farm was. And all the women wore pants.

And unless i miss my guess, I'm at least 10 years younger than you are. Probably closer to 15.
