I discovered a living man from Africa who claims to have been born in the last half of the 19th century. Obviously he was not born when he said he was, but he mentioned being 8 Years old when British Missionaries came to his village and taught the children how to count. Doing some research, these Missionaries came to his village in 1916, giving him a possible birthyear of 1908. However, we all know that there's the possibility he could be confusing his memories with someone else, or remembering his age wrong. Sadly, he has no evidence or documentation to prove his claim,  and we'll likely never know how old he truly is. But, based on some of the things he was able to recall, I'd bet big money that this man is at least 105. His family wishes his name to be kept anonymous.
