If you all think there should be adjustments to the ages, please let me know. I'm pretty sure that in DCU, Lois is supposed to be younger than Clark, but I dislike that idea so I went with SV!timeline ;) Also, they were never clear on who came first--Bruce or Ollie but considering there's some sort of canon when Ollie admitted he took a lot of stuff from Bruce's schtick, I went with Ollie being a little younger.
1) Not that I'm disagreeing but is there a reason why Hal is younger than Ollie? 2 years isn't a huge age difference & I'm sure it wouldn't matter who was older or younger by that small margin; I just want to know if there's a specific and/or canon reason for it.
2) I was going to make Jaime around 16/17 myself but with Milagro acting around 8-10, I think 14-15 is more reasonable.
3) Donna: This is very true. I'd (purposefully) forgotten about her creepy husband. ;) I think I made her younger because she acted younger in Titans: Year One but that may be because she'd just arrived from Themyscrira.
I'm tempted to say Batman is X + only about 20. I don't know exactly how old Dick was when adopted (say about 10), but think Batman was just starting in his career when they met up. But maybe that's been addressed somewhere in canon - I plead ignorance!
I also cannot put Lois or in her 40s, nor Clark for that matter. I think Clark is supposed to be somewhere around 35, however little sense that makes with back continuity.
I got SUCH a massive headache tyring to figure out Batman, Robin & Superman's ages! *L* Apparently, Bruce fostered Dick when Dick was 8 then became Nightwing at around 19 after voluntarily giving the Robin mantle to Jason but then there was a retcon. So now, Dick was 10 when Bruce fostered him, 13 when Bruce adopted him and 17 when Bruce "fires" Dick/Dick "quits" being Robin & starts being Nightwing. I have no idea where Zoe got Dick-is-26-right-now-at-this-moment-we-are-speaking but she is the font of all Bat knowing so I will bow down to that

I'm going to need this for the JLA in this next epic? Will credit your findings here, but it'll mostly be for continuity's sake for everyone but the Supers ( I have my own age canon of them, even if we never mention numerical ages on the adults). ;)
Calm down! *LOL* It's coming up in a couple of fics and oneshots. And it's not going to be standalone stories. But the JLA is creeping more and more into everyone's lives as the LS-verse opens bigger. Not totally comfortable writing them yet, but they'll be a major part of the new epic and the shorts leading up to it. Keep your eyes open. ;)

I've checked the timeline out before but I didn't use it explicitly for this table.

Looking for more pictures now!

If I were to change it so Bruce = Dick's age +20, would this result in changes for everyone you gave?

...though I do feel I should link you to this:

I'm not sure how up to date it is or accurate, but it's what I've used in the past.

FYI, the "In Another Lifetime" series is ripe for more material. ;)
