I would like to know how many people in the USA have been married for
60 years or more to the same person?  I need this percentage for an
upcoming anniversary celebration.

Hi rapdc,
I was only able to find from the US Census Bureau the number of people
that had been married to the same person for 50 (rather than 60) years
or more in 2001. Please let me know if you'd like me to post this
information as an answer or if you'd rather wait for another
Researcher who might come across the specific answer you want.

Best regards,
elmarto

Yes, if the only available data is for those who have been married for
over 50 years, that will suffice.

Thank you!
