Don't worry, it won't be among your problems.

don't know if this has been posted yet but I can't find it, so here is a picture of Marita Camacho Quiros back in march of this year. Looks pretty good I'd say ! She does remind me of a younger Maria Branyas Morera

It would be nice if you credited the original source, that the GRG have ripped this from. Complete charlatans.

John Tinniswood now the oldest validated man, but validation process will probably start for Josias de Oliveira. Also Shi Ping could be older than Tinniswood.

Someone on the 110club is saying Josias de Oliveira has died.

Which means all 5 of the men who could have plausibly been older than Tinniswood have now gone, unless there’s any that I’m missing?

Rashid Karimov is stil alive, and also Carlos Julio Rincon Garzon, though he seemed debunked for good.

 

Of course you can not get a clean sheet here. There will always be some dickhead around the world who claims to be older than him.

Well the latter is debunked as you said.
 

The former is from Tajikistan, where you’re never going to be able to validate with reliable records, so I’m going with “no” as the answer to my own question as it’s not plausible that either of those 2 will take the title.

 

I see LongeviQuest have an anonymous male listed as 2nd oldest. More interested to know who that is.

Anna La Morgia aka Sister Serafina died on July 17th at 111, she was the oldest nun in Europe.

No. This man's family does not want publicity. There are no articles about him online. But he is very likely older than Tinniswood

Josias de Oliveira has not died, he is still alive, it was just a false rumor.

Probably because they haven't applied any scrutiny and just wanted to be first. The GRG isn't a reliable organisation and I wish people would stop treating them as such. We should wait until LQ validates him.

John Farringdon second oldest man in the UK supposedly dead at 111

[drol 11,073]

I was gonna post how surprised I was John Tinniswood and John Farringdon were carrying on.

 

Would have been the ultimate jinx.

John Farringdone.

[Master Obit 705]

He looked frail at his last birthday so this isn't really a shock. What a life though (ignoring the being a staunch tory).

[Hanzem 705]

Ethel Caterham (1909-) has reached the age of 41,998 days surpassing the age (41,997 days) of the previous 3rd-oldest person from the UK, Eva Morris (1885-2000)

She is the first British person in the 21st century to achieve an age of 41,998+ days.
