Their name isn’t even Duggar. It’s Leo and Ruth Zanger.

“We rent out a church hall,” said Austin Zanger, a grandson of Leo and Ruth.

When Austin’s wife, Ashleigh, gave birth to their second child, Jaxton Leo, on April 8, it became a historic moment. Jaxton was grandchild No. 100 for Leo and Ruth.

For the numerically inclined, Jaxton was also No. 46 among the great-grandchildren. The Zangers also have 53 grandkids and one great-great-grandchild for a nice round 100.

“The good Lord has just kept sending them,” Leo Zanger said of the grandkids. “We could start our own town.”

…Leo and Ruth, who have been married 59 years, had 12 children of their own between 1956 and 1984. Daughter Linda, born in 1956, is the oldest at 58. The youngest is son Joe, 31, who was already an uncle 10 times over when he was born in 1984.

    Really? My grandparents had 19 kids (16 living) and were waaaayyyy over that mark a long time ago. 100 grandkids is nothing. But, congrats none the less.

      Congrats?…really?

      It’s something to be ashamed of, not congratulated on.

        Wow, aren’t you a little ray of sunshine on a crappy day.

          Someone should have told Grandma that it’s a vagina, not a clown car.

            just like someone should have told your mom to have an abortion.
