Marie Laure du Serre-Telmon
Unvalidated

Marie Laure du Serre-Telmon (Born as María Laura) (January 4, 1860? - January 8, 1977) was a Venezuelan-French supercentenarian and a claimant to be the first person to have reached the ages of 114 through 117. At the time of her death, she may have been the oldest person ever, and also the oldest living person. Upon her death, the title of oldest living person passed to either Shigechiyo Izumi (born August 20, 1865) or Alice Coles (born August 29, 1865).

However, the investigation is far from complete for this case. There is no public photo located, no news reports of her turning 110 through 117, and no news reports yet located for this claim in any context. Without a clear family tree, the asserted verification of this case is not complete.
