Irene Eskey - of Black Rock, Arizona, United States - passed away on 18 February 2022.
She claimed to have been born in Arizona on 7 April 1906. However, located census records support she was actually a few years younger, and more likely born in 1910, therefore making her 111 at the time of death instead of 115. She was the oldest living Navajo Native American.
