British Supercentenarian Marjorie Hodnett Celebrates Her 112th Birthday
Marjorie Hodnett, a resident of Formby, Merseyside, England, is celebrating her 112th birthday today.
Hodnett was born in Harlesden, London, on 1 April 1914. After her father was called to serve in World War I, she, her mother, and her brother lived with relatives.
In 1939, she married Stanley Hodnett, who passed away in 1956. That same year, she married his brother, Haydn “Hugh” Hodnett, and moved to Sidbury, Devon, where she taught at All Saint’s Primary School. After being widowed a second time, she found comfort in her Methodist faith. She had no children but enjoyed country dancing and painting.
Following the passing of John Tinniswood on 25 November 2024, she became the oldest known living person in Merseyside. She is currently the 5th-oldest living person in the United Kingdom.
Happy 112th Birthday!

When the young commander of the guard declared his love for her, she rejected him simply because his frivolity startled her. "See how simple he is," she told Amaranta. "He says that he’s dying because of me, as if I were a bad case of colic."
