Ethel Somerville (14 January 1889 - 12 July 1997), aged 108 years, 179 days. This obituary lists her age as 109, but this is incorrect, as her listing on NZ BDM shows 14 January 1889 as her birthdate. Another obituary and several birthday reports list her date of birthday as January 1889, unfortunately I do not have access to them at this moment in time. Mrs. Somerville was born in Rangiora, Canterbury, and passed away in Feilding, Manawatu.
