Revision as of 07:00, 26 August 2015

This is an incomplete list of verified North American supercentenarians (people from North America who have attained the age of at least 110 years). There have been over 750 verified supercentenarians from North America.[1] The oldest North American ever was American woman Sarah Knauss, who died at the age of 119 years 97 days. As of 11 July 2024, there are 11 verified living supercentenarians, along with 15 pending[2] and 32 unverified in North America, the oldest of whom is American woman Susannah Mushatt Jones,[2] aged 125 years, 5 days, whose case is verified.

Living North American supercentenarians

Below is a list of the oldest living people from North America. Those entries color-coded as verified have been validated by the Gerontology Research Group (GRG). Those color-coded as pending are backed by at least one document reviewed by the GRG supporting the reported age, but not the three necessary for validation by that institution. Those color-coded as unverified have submitted no documents to support the claimed age. All but one verified, pending, and unverified supercentenarians listed below are women.
