Greta (Grietje) Jansen-Anker (12 September 1897 – 13 October 2009)[1] was a Dutch supercentenarian. She was the oldest person in the Netherlands between 19 May 2006 and her death on 13 October 2009, at age 112 years 31 days. She inherited the title after the death of 111 year-old Alexandrina van Donkelaar-Vink of Utrecht. The last Dutch person born in the 19th century, she was also one of the 30 verified oldest living people at the time of her death. Jansen-Anker was born in the ancient harbour town of Vlissingen and lived much of her life in nearby Middelburg. She lived independently until age 102 and moved to a Rotterdam nursing home in 2008. After her death, 107 year-old Bertha van Hasselt became the oldest person in the Netherlands, and died three days later.
