Marie Laure du-Serre-Telmon (January 4, 1860 - January 8, 1977) was a French supercentenarian and the first person verified to have reached the ages of 114, 115, 116, and 117. She is the sixth-oldest verifed person in history, beyond Jeanne Calment, Sarah Knauss, Lucy Hannah, Marie-Louise Meilleur, and Misao Okawa. At the time of her death, she was the oldest person ever, and also the oldest living person. She became the oldest living person upon the death of Ada Roe, and upon her death at the age of 117 years 4 days, the title of oldest living person passed to Sophia DeMuth. After falling unconscious, she died in a hospital.

It was originally thought that the oldest people between Ada Roe and Sophia DeMuth were Josefa Salas Mateo, Alice Stevenson, Elizabeth Watkins, Mito Umeta, and Niwa Kawamoto. With the discovery of du-Serre-Telmon, however, those five no longer held the record.
