1. This case is already known about and verified.
2. Nicoya, Guanacaste is in Costa Rica, not Nicaragua.

@mendocino thanks, i don't know why I put it here. I have even read some papers on the Nicoya peninsula recently.
I couldn't find anything about her on any of the SC websites, though. Glad to know she is validated

Belia Engracia Cabezas Araya, the second-oldest (known) living person in Costa Rica, passed away on October 29, at the age of 111 years, 60 days.
Cabezas Araya was born in Ángeles de San Ramón, Alajuela, Costa Rica, on 30 August 1913, as the fifth daughter born to parents Eleodoro Cabezas Quesada and Amada Ester Araya Salas. Her paternal grandfather was José Gabriel Cabezas Alfaro (1815–1917), one of the founders of Ángeles de San Ramón, and a veteran of the Second Battle of Rivas.
Cabezas Araya never married nor had children.
At the time of her passing, she was the second-oldest (known) living person in Costa Rica, behind Marita Camacho Quirós.
From the Longeviquest article.

Top 10 oldest (known) living men in Costa Rica
1. Bernabé Córdoba (b. 11 June 1915), 109, (Santa Ana, San José)
2. Jose Francisco Duarte Quesada (b. 30 October 1916), 108, (Pérez Zeledón, San José)
3. Anonymous (b. 20 September 1917), 107, (Limon, Limon)
4. Jose Rosales Vallejos (b. 17 February 1918), 106, (Santa Cruz, Guanacaste)
5. Anonymous (b. 24 March 1918), 106, (Limon, Limon)
6. Benitivo Arias Campos (b. 20 January 1919), 105, (Puriscal, San José)
7. Anonymous (b. 20 August 1919), 105, (Heredia, Heredia)
8. Antonio Camacho Mondragón (b. 17 January 1920), 104, (Heredia, Heredia)
9. Antonio Calderon Quesada (b. 1 February 1920), 104, (La Unión, Cartago)
10. Juan de Dios Ruiz (b. 8 March 1920), 104, (Nicoya, Guanacaste)
Note: These are just the cases that have been confirmed alive recently - there are a few other men born in 1917, 1918, and 1919 still listed in voter records, but I can't 100% confirm that they're still alive. The true top 10 is likely 105+. Cases without public reports are listed as "anonymous", but I researched and verified all of them.
