With Holding's death, would Joe Shein, born on 23 Feb 1915 in New Jersey and living in New York, be the new top ten? Or is there another older one?

With Alfred's death, Chester Meros, born on 14 July 1915 in Pennsylvania and living in Maryland, would be the new tenth runner?

Fairly bleak times overall for USA men’s longevity at the moment, with just one having reached 110.5 and a second having only just reached 110. 

The bleak summary above actually overstated the real position.

There is just one male supercentenarian in the USA and at just 110.05.

 Based on the death date for Mr Randle, there were none for a while.

9. Major McDonald (Mississippi) (b. 1 November 1915), 108 y.o.

There's a possibility he was actually born around July 1915, as his January 1920 US Census entry lists him as 4 years and 6 months old.

After this death, Phillip Thomas, born on March 5, 1916 in Maine, where he still lives, enters the top 10?

Andres Irizarry Troche lives in the USA?

Oh whoops, my apologies. The LQ page lists Mr. Irizarry Troche as currently residing in Puerto Rico, but the gerontology wiki site lists him as residing in the USA.

He is not listed as living in the USA, it happens that when the Puerto Rico flag is added to the forum, one of the USA is automatically placed next to it, as Puerto Rico belongs to the USA, I think it is also unnecessary

Yes, it's very likely that they corrected it later

 Morrie Markoff died in 3/jun/24?
