People
Catarina Carreiro-Pascoal
Catarina Carreiro Pascoal (9 January 1891 – 13 February 2004) was the 1st verified supercentenarian case from Portugal (verified in 2002) and was for a time thought to be Portugal's oldest person, until Maria do Couto Maia-Lopes was discovered. Carreiro ranks 4th in list. She died at the age of 113 years 35 days.[8]
Maria do Couto Maia-Lopes
Maria do Couto Maia-Lopes (24 October 1890 – 25 July 2005) was the 2nd longest-lived person to be documented in Portugal. She was born and lived in Grijó, in Vila Nova de Gaia, which is near the city of Porto.
She remembered the day when the last king of Portugal, D. Manuel II, visited the nearby town of Espinho, on 23 November 1908.[9]
Maia-Lopes was nearly deaf and blind in her later years, and was confined to bed after a 2002 domestic accident with boiling water that burned her feet.[citation needed] She had a total of eight daughters, seven grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and five great-great-grandchildren. Her husband died in 1942. One of her great-granddaughters married a grandson of Portugal's oldest ever man, Augusto Moreira de Oliveira (1896 – 2009).[10]
Maia-Lopes died at the age of 114 years 274 days, which places her as one of the 40 longest lived people ever. At the time of her death, she was the 2nd-oldest person in Europe, behind Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper. She was also recognized as the 4th-oldest person in the world behind van Andel-Schipper, Elizabeth Bolden and Bettie Wilson, both from the United States. Maia-Lopes would later be relegated to fifth-oldest in the world at the time of her death with the recognition of María Capovilla of Ecuador.[1]
Alice Sanders
Alice Sanders (São Jorge Island, 12 May 1897 – Merced, California, 7 November 2007)[1] was one of the last survivors of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Alice Catarina Matos was born in the Azores archipelago. Her family emigrated to Half Moon Bay (California) in 1903, when Alice was 6 years old. The April 18, 1906 San Francisco earthquake, a few weeks prior to Alice's ninth birthday, was a traumatic experience to her family, since they believed the end of the World had come. In 1912, the Matos family moved to Gustine, where Alice met Clarence Leonard Sanders, which became her husband in the Christmas Day of 1913.[11] [12]
Augusto Moreira de Oliveira
Augusto Moreira de Oliveira (6 October 1896 – 13 February 2009) was at his death age 112 years, 130 days, Portugal's oldest ever man, and the oldest person in Portugal at the time of his death. He was the 4th-oldest man in the world, the 2nd-oldest man in Europe and the 5th-oldest person in the continent. He ranks in the top 25 oldest men ever and was one of the 25 oldest verified living people in the world. He is the 6th oldest person ever from Portugal. On 2 January 2009, Oliveira became Portugal's oldest living person.
Antonio de Castro
Antonio Fernandes de Castro (6 January 1898 – 22 June 2009) was at his death age 111 years 167 days, the oldest person in Portugal and the 2nd-oldest Portuguese male ever behind Augusto Moreira de Oliveira who died on 13 February 2009.[13] In addition, he was one of the 50 oldest verified men ever. At the time of his death, Fernandes was also the 4th-oldest man in the world and the 2nd-oldest in Europe, behind the world's then oldest man, Henry Allingham, from the United Kingdom. He was the oldest man born in 1898.
Maria Luíza Nunes da Silva
Maria Luíza Beires Nunes da Silva (7 July 1898 – 26 September 2011) of Lisbon was a Portuguese supercentenarian who was 113 years 81 days at her death. She was the oldest living person in Portugal. She became the oldest living woman in Portugal on 2 January 2009 following the death of Maria de Jesus, who at 115 years 114 days was the oldest verified living person worldwide and the last remaining person from 1893. With the death of Antonio de Castro on the 22 June 2009 at age 111 years 167 days, she was the oldest Portuguese person. Silva was the only validated living supercentenarian in Portugal at the time of her death and also the last remaining validated living person in Portugal who was born in the 19th century.
Maria Luiza Nunes da Silva exercised everyday and was reported to be in good health, although she was in a wheelchair most of the time.[14] She resided in Lisbon with a daughter of hers. da Silva also had 12 grandchildren, 41 great-grandchildren, and 14 great-great-grandchildren at the time of her death.[15]
On 5 August 2011, Maria Luíza Nunes da Silva aged 113 years 29 days became one of 40 oldest people from Europe ever.
On 26 September 2011 she died at the age of 113 years 81 days, and was the 12th oldest person in the world at the time of her death.
