The oldest validated living Saint Kittian and Nevisian is Ms. Bernice Sebastian (KNA/USA, 21 Sept 1913 – present,  110).

Ms. Bernice Rosalind Eugene Sebastian is an American supercentenarian born in Saint Kitts and Nevis on 21 September 1913.

Following her mother’s passing, she left Saint Kitts to live in Nova Scotia, Canada with her sister, Dorette, where she would spend the next 27 years. Around 2000, she moved to Queens, New York, to live with her sister Elise. Then, in 2005, she moved to Barryville, and finally, in 2011, she settled in Philadelphia. 

In 1995, Bernice’s brother, Cuthbert Sebastian, was appointed Governor-General of Saint Kitts and Nevis. On her 109th birthday, she had one living sister and two living half-sisters. Her half-sister, Stella Eudora Shaw (who passed away in February 2023, aged 91) was the First Lady of Dominica between 1998 and 2003.

Now the oldest person living in the country would be Elizer Jeffers born on November 30, 1919 living in Nevis?

Crazy how some smaller places already have only a couple people left from the 1910s or none at all

Given that she was reported as being the second oldest while Mary Browne was still alive, yes.
