Dartmoorgal, these average life span figures are very deceptive. Infant mortality was very high. Around 1 in 20 or more children died before they were 5 in the 19th century. Now the figure is 1 in 250.
If a child survived there 5th birthday they were likely to live into their 60s or even older, this is regardless of gender or level of wealth (or not). Certain industries did have high mortality, but overall people could expect to live to a reasonable age.
Any one who has done any family history will have noticed that many of their ancestors had reasonable lifespans, well past the 'average' figure, even if they were born and lived in poverty.
My evidence is anecdotal, but, on one side, my family are Irish immigrants to London during the Great Famine. These were as low in society as you could expect to be, best comparison would be being treated like asylum seekers today. At the bottom of every pile.
The majority lived into their 50s/60s. One great great grandfather, born c 1796 lived into his late 80s and my great grandmother, born in 1850, lived to the age of 82. All lived their lives in poverty. I also had a great grandfather who died at the age of 35.
Male or female, I would not live in any age but my own.
