Thanks! Extremely interesting! I will remain quiet about this (hopefully I won't forget!) for as long as necessary but I nevertheless do hope that the information that you told me can eventually become public.

There is still a 111-year-old woman in California who had a supercentenarian sister

Who exactly?

@futurist Maxine Hix, there was a Longeviquest article where they confirmed she was still living a few months ago.

Thanks for clarifying! Two sisters living to age 111+! Quite amazing!

BTW, this is a random comment, but I discovered a centenarian born in the 1910s named Maxine Hix who lived to age 104:

BTW, there was also a 105-year-old woman, also born in Pennsylvania, who was also named Sarah Knauss:

A combined age of 224+ years for two people sharing the same name!

@Mendocino What are your thoughts on this male SC claimant from Cuba back from 2011?

https://gerontology.fandom.com/wiki/Ignacio_Cubilla_Banos

Any chance of him being true and validatable?

@Fish previously did some research that indicates that Joe Willie Hollins was born Joe Willie Brock (his mom married a man with the last name of Hollins after his birth) and that he might have been 1-3 years older than he claimed to have been according to both his 1910 and 1920 US Census entries.

His 1910 US Census entry implies a birth year of 1903/1904, depending on whether age rounding was used, thus implying a final age of 114 or 115 for him:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MP81-VD1

His 1920 US Census entry implies a birth year of 1904 for him (it was taken in January 1920 and since he was born in August, age rounding is less likely for him here than for his 1910 US Census entry, which was taken in April):

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M43D-M8D

His 1920 US Census entry thus implies a final age of 114 for him.

His WWII draft registration card gives a 1906 birth year for him and implies a final age of 112 for him:

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QP2C-DHRQ

He apparently claimed 1906 and a final age of 112 later on in his life. Should we thus go with that, or should we go with a higher final age for him based on his 1910 and 1920 US Census entries?

Please note, though, that his 1910 and 1920 US Census entries are NOT equivalent to birth or baptismal records for him. They too have a margin of error. Unfortunately, I don't know if birth and/or baptismal records for him actually exist. A birth record probably doesn't since birth registration was not universal in Mississippi back then, but I'm unsure about a baptismal record. If it does exist, though, it's certainly not online.

I don't think he seems particularly plausible, but he does look old enough to be a SC.

Would be interesting if Cuban records for his area ever became publicly available. My guess is that he was indeed 100+, but probably not 110+. However, the latter possibly can't be completely ruled out.

"latter possibility"

(Corrected typo.)

@Mendocino BTW, based on the research above (done by @Fish), would you argue that if LQ will ever verify Joe Willie Hollins, it should verify him as age 114 and not as age 112 like he claimed to have been?

Here's his mom's 1912 marriage record to Will Hollins:

@Admin Here is a near-SC death from 2022:

https://www.kelownadailycourier.ca/news/article_dbd05f24-baa9-11ec-b235-1fd799c25cb6.html

I'm reporting it late here because it hasn't been reported at all here.

BTW, I'm sorry for making so many consecutive posts in my own thread, but I can't edit my posts after I make them and thus I have to make new ones whenever I have something else to say.

@AQ I think that Anisio's record (if ever actually validated) will be broken sometime before 2050. Not sure when exactly, though.

I think that, based on Christian Mortensen's age relation to other Danish-born men, the maximum possible age for extreme male longevity would probably be around 121-122 and for women around 125, but then we'd need to get an extremely gigantic outlier for either men or women on par for what Christian Mortensen is for Danish-born men (the all-time runner-up is almost 5.5 years younger than he himself is).
