From the original SW it's safe to say Anakin is younger it might necessarily be spelt out but there are the references to "old man" etc.

The various and changing timelines and ages are examined (quite well and thoroughly) in the "secret history of star wars" which can be found on these forums if you do a search I guess. Forgive me I can't remember who the author is but he is a member here.

Offically there's 19 years between III and IV.

Ep1 - Kenobi is 25 Anakin is 9.

10 years in between

Ep2 - Kenobi is 35 Anakin is 19.

3 years pass

Ep3 - Kenobi is 38 Anakin is 22

19 years in bewteen

Ep4 - Kenobi is 57 Vader is 41

If I'm mistaken someone correct me as I did this quickly.

Add on about 10-15 years and things should be right.

Definately check out the web book I mentioned above. If I have time later I'll try to look it up.
