List of Dutch supercentenarians

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

Christina Karnebeek-Backs (1849–1959), from Holterhoek (now part of Berkelland), was recognized posthumously as the world's oldest living person for about a year.[1] Pictured on her 110th birthday, 2 October 1959, a few days before she died.

Dutch supercentenarians are citizens, residents or emigrants from the Netherlands who have attained or surpassed 110 years of age. As of January 2015, the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) had validated the longevity claims of 27 Dutch supercentenarians.[2] There are currently two people from the Netherlands known to be alive over age 110, the oldest being Geertje Kuijntjes of Gorkum, aged 118 years, 244 days.[3] The oldest Dutch person ever was Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper, who lived 115 years and 62 days, from 1890 to 2005.[2]
