Mary Ewen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mary Ewen (May 5, 1878? - April 10, 2007) claimed to be Jamaica's oldest person and the oldest person in the Western hemisphere, since the passing of Cruz Hernández. She had no birth certificate, but the ages of her children (84 and 82) suggest that she was probably over 100, although the age gap of forty-plus years leaves room for exaggeration.
