Superannuated

If your ancestor is referred to as being “superannated,” it does not mean that they are Superman or Supergirl in training. It usually means to be retired with a pension. There may or may not be employment records related to their employment

The word’s not often used today, but one can easily find it in newspapers.  I found over 60,000 references to the word GenealogyBank. I only found 893 references to my mother’s maiden name of Ufkes. As a reminder, you can search for keywords on by GenealogyBank by only typing that word in the last name box.

Thanks to LSP of our “Genealogy Tip of the Day” group on Facebook for this reminder.
