OK. Regardless of in what year they were born we agree that the timeline above is wrong .... and that is all I was saying.


It's impossible to establish a perfectly accurate timeline because of the numerous inconsistenties in the novel and even the films. The novel states that Tom was 35 in 1945 and Sonny of the same age. Later on the novel states that Sonny was sixteen in 1933. You see where I'm getting at? One has to make choices in creating a timeline based on personal preferences. Puzo and Coppola never offered us a consistent timeline in the first place.
