Annie Nelson, a resident of Carenage, Trinidad and Tobago, sadly passed away on 2 October 2026, at the claimed age of 110 years and 262 days.
She claimed to be the oldest living person in Trinidad and Tobago after the death, on March 2026, of Irving Joseph.
Nelson claims to have been born in Moruga, Trinidad and Tobago, on 13 January 1916. She grew up in the village of La Lune, near Moruga. At the age of 26, she got married, and went on to have eight children.
A deeply religious woman, she developed an interest in nursing at an early age but was unable to pursue it. Instead, she became a teacher at a school in Moruga, where she shared her expertise in needlework and cared for many young people in the community. In the 1970s, she remarried.
Rest in peace.

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."
