Intergenerational and mixed families were quite common before World War II, especially in rural areas.
People forget how common it was back then to become a widow/widower at a relatively young age, which resulted in a lot of re-marriage. It was also a lot more common for husbands or adult sons to work/live away from the rest of their families for extended periods of time. People also generally had a lot more kids.
