Maidstone Archer Lifespan?

Okay, I'm probably getting a bit ahead of things since I haven't finished my Marshedge project yet (I'm working on it, I swear; I hope to have it done by the end of the month—at least the writing if not all the illustrations), but I've been mulling over some ideas for future projects, and I had a possible idea for one of them for which the matter in the topic of this title is relevant.  Do Maidstone Archers have normal human lifespans, or do they live significantly longer than humans?  Or is this something that hasn't been established in canon?

(I kind of want to use a Maidstone Archer in my next RuneQuest project, but given the nature of that project it would only work if Maidstone Archers could live for at least a century and a half.  If not, though, no big deal; the Maidstone Archer was just a fun detail I wanted to include, but it isn't essential to the concept, and the project can still work fine without it.)

(Side question: In earlier editions Maidstone Archers were called "grotarons", but as far as I can tell this term has been dropped from the latest edition (maybe it's used somewhere, but not that I could find).  Is "grotaron" an officially deprecated term, or is it still used in some contexts?  Or is it, for instance, a rude nickname to which Maidstone Archers would take exception?)
