The new top 5 is Alberto Montero born 1/11/1914 lives in Aguadulce, Province of CocleJulian is deceased as well, and it was already proven he was not age claimed (though the exact date of birth was not determined because church books are badly damaged).
Also Alberto was last confirmed almost 2 years ago, so he is limbo.

Has this man been researched?
I doubt he's the age claimed, but he could still be one of the oldest living men in Panama
EDIT: The link I originally posted didn't work, so here's a better link

The oldest documented living man in Panama is Rubén Ibarra Samaniego (b. 30 Jul 1915), who turned 108 almost two weeks ago.
However, quite a few undocumented Panamanian men claim to be older, such as Macario Barria (10 Mar 1913), Quintín González (31 Oct 1914), and an unidentified man born in 1913.

He is the #7 oldest person in the history of Panama, the oldest man in the history of the country.
After his death, the oldest person in Panama became Juan Bautista Quiroz Piti, born on August 29, 1915 in Chiriqui, where he still lives?
Does anyone have information about the oldest living woman in Panama? He spent 48 days (since October 23, 2024) as the oldest person in the country, the shortest time in history since reliable data is available. The previous shortest time was c. 111 days by Bienvenida Vergara Jaen de Cano, who spent c. 15 Feb 2017 to 6 Jun 2017. He was the first man to be the oldest person in the country, the youngest person to die in that position since Elvira Paredes de Samaniego, who died at 111 years, 265 days on July 10, 2020, and the second person from Los Santos to be the oldest in the country. The previous person was the aforementioned Bienvenida. Of the people considered the oldest in their countries, he was the oldest man, a position now occupied by Ilie Ciocan (ROM). #13 Oldest person in the history of Central America, #2 oldest living person in the region. In 4 days, Central America lost 3 deans of its countries, men and women. oldest person in Puerto Rico on 11 and 8 Dec and oldest person in Panama

Nellie Swayne 13 Dec 1883 14 Sep 1995 USA
Ella Coleman 12 Dec 1893 13 Sep 2005 USA
Hisa Tokumoto 25 Feb 1896 27 Nov 2007 JPN

If validated he would be the 2nd oldest man alive at the time of his death

Guillermina Acosta Bilbao was a Panamanian supercentenarian. Since 2016, she has held the record as the oldest person ever recorded in Panama.
BIOGRAPHY
Guillermina Acosta Bilbao was born in David, Chiriqui Province, Colombia (now Panama), on 27 November 1901. She grew up with her four sisters and her father, Atanasio, as her mother, Demetria, passed away at a young age—just 34. She never married but had two partners: Dionisio Atencio, whom she met in 1919, and Brígido Roux. She had a total of nine children with them. Her son Cecilio, born in July 1920, was still alive as of May 2025 at the age of 104.
Acosta worked as a housewife, performing tasks such as cooking, washing clothes in the river, roasting coffee, grinding corn, and feeding corn to the chickens. She also worked in agriculture. Her daily routine began at 4:00 a.m. when she would prepare breakfast and lunch for her partner, Brígido, who worked in the fields and, during the 1930s, contributed to the construction of the Pan-American Highway. Brígido passed away in 1997 at the age of 83.
Her personality was described as “kind-hearted, affectionate, wise, and tender with her grandchildren. She always smiled and was never bad-tempered with anyone.” She was also known for her love of cooking and dancing.
When asked about her secret to longevity, she attributed it to her deep faith in God. She prayed throughout the day—upon waking, bathing, eating, and before sleeping—and always prayed for her family and the sick.
At the age of 112, she had five living children, 29 grandchildren, and 15 great-grandchildren.
Guillermina Acosta Bilbao passed away in David, Chiriquí Province, Panama, on 13 February 2017, at the age of 115 years, 78 days.
RECOGNITION
On 4 August 2015, following the passing of 114-year-old Serafina Herrera de Sugasti, she became the oldest known living person in Panama, at the age of 113 years, 250 days. On 11 February 2016, at the age of 114 years, 76 days, she surpassed Herrera’s final age, becoming the oldest person ever recorded in Panama. At the same time, she became the oldest known person ever born in Central America.
On 7 March 2016, following the passing of 114-year-old Eleonora Camargo Veiga of Brazil, she became the oldest documented living person in Latin America, at 114 years and 101 days old (Note: this excludes Eudoxie Baboul, who passed away in French Guiana on 1 July 2016).
On 12 May 2016, following the passing of Susannah Mushatt Jones (USA), she became the oldest known living person in continental North America, at the age of 114 years, 167 days. However, Violet Brown of Jamaica, who lived in the Caribbean, was older and outlived her.
Upon her passing, Bienvenida Vergara Jaén succeeded her as the nation’s oldest known resident, while Luzia Mohrs succeeded her as the oldest known living person in Latin America. Delphine Gibson succeeded her as the oldest known living person in continental North America.
At the time of her passing, she was the 6th-oldest living person in the world, after Emma Morano, Violet Brown, Nabi Tajima, Chiyo Miyako, and Ana Vela Rubio.
She was the last known surviving person born in the territory of present-day Panama before its secession from Colombia on 3 November 1903.
