according to AD&D 2nd edition Lifespans are as follows (unless shortened or lengthened through adventuring) numbers are from either players handbook or humanoids handbook

dwarf - 450 max (250+2d100)
elf - 750 max (350+4d100)(note elves do not die upon reaching this age, they merely depart the world of men)
gnome - 500 max(200+3d100)
half-elf - 185 max (125+3d20)
halfling - 200 max (100+1d100)
human - 130 max (90+2d20)
1/2orc - 80 max (60+1d20)
goblin - 60 max (40+1d20)
hobgoblin - 70 max(50+1d20)
kobold - 135 max(95+2d20)
minotaur - 250 max (150+1d100)
Ogre(1/2ogre) - 130 max(90+2d20)
Orc - 45 max (35+1d10)
centaur - 115 max(75+2d20)

some campaign worlds have different aging effects, ie for darksun elves live about the same length as humans, and dwarves live a little longer, and most standard humanoids like 1/2 orcs don't exsist at all, in Birthright elves do not age at all (and are thusly immune to aging spells and powers like the touch of a ghost)
