They varied. Many people died as children. Three of Shakespeare's four sisters died before the age of ten. Shakespeare's son Hamnet died at eleven. One of his four grandchildren also died as an infant (Shakespeare Quiney).
Once people got past childhood they stood a better chance. Adults, if they didn't get caught up in the plague or syphilis or another prevalent disease, could live well into their seventies or eighties. Women seem to have lived longer than men. Shakespeare, at 52, outlived all of his brothers but was outlived by his sister Joan who lived to the age of 77. Shakespeare's mother, two daughters and granddaughter Elizabeth all lived to a ripe old age.
