    Are any of Laura Ingalls Wilder's siblings still alive, or any of Almonzo's siblings?

    		No. The Ingalls and Wilder children were born in the 19th century. The youngest of Laura's siblings, Grace, died in 1941. (Laura lived until 1957) Almanzo, the youngest child in his family, died in 1949:

    		I would think the answer is NO based on the following:

    Laura Ingalls Wilder was the last of her family to die.

    Almanzo was born in 1857 and died on October 23, 1949, at Rocky Ridge farm at the age of 92...he was the fifth child born in the family.

    		No... if so, they'd have broken the record for longest living people ever, as Laura's siblings were born between 1865 and 1877, and Almanzo was ten years older than Laura.

    Mary Ingalls: 1865-1928
    Caroline (Carrie) Ingalls: 1870-1946
    Charles Frederick (Freddie) Ingalls: 1875-1876
    Grace Ingalls: 1877-1941

    Almanzo's siblings have all passed away, too.
