Just wanted to poke my nose in and say that, according to Benny Green's "Wodehouse: A Literary Biography", Jeeves was born in 1881 (the same year as Wodehouse himself, incidentally). And if we assume that Bertie's 23 or 24 when they meet in 1919 (his age is referenced somewhere in "Carry On Jeeves", IIRC), then Bertie was born in 1895 or so. So the 10-15 year age gap is about right.
