My edits on January 16th, 2007

I've combined the Royalty and Nobility sections -- didn't see any need to distinguish them, especially since together they only have four members. Also, I separated out Married Couples from Miscellaneous and made the format of that section more like the rest of the list. The Guinness and Le Monde claims in that section need referencing. I took out "Sorry to report that Mr. Rocchio died Monday.He was 102 year old,his wife might have died as well"... a quick Google didn't turn up a reference for his death, and "Monday" isn't very specific.

Spanish Supercentenarian?

In the list of "Relative of someone well-known" someone listed the Duchess of Dúrcal, wife of José Ramón Rodil y Campillo, a spanish general and statesman. She is listed as born in 1788 (her husband was born in 1789, so her birthyear seems right). But the year she died is said to be 1901! So she would have been 112 or 113. Could that be right? That would mean, she was the oldest woman in the world at the time of her death. Many age records would have been broken earlier (first 112h birthday, etc.). I could not find something on the internet about her, except this listing on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.137.80.231 (talk • contribs) (posted May 19, 2007)

I have received a long note about this on my talk page from User:Ryoung122, giving further documentation [1] ;in accordance with it I have finally removed the above name from the list. If I have misunderstood the situation, feel free to revert--with a good explanation. 12:24, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
