Frederick Butterfield

Frederick Victor Butterfield (28 February 1864 - 9 March 1974) was a verified British supercentenarian and the oldest living verified man in the world at the time of his death aged 110 years, 9 days (however, pending case Isaac Edwards may have been older). He was, after John Mosely Turner, the second man Guinness recognized as Britain's oldest man (Guinness had let the title lapse after the death of Turner). He was also Europe's oldest person when he died. He was a chemist.
