The GRG announces the age validation of Mabel Agnes Wilson, nee Stewart (Known as Mamie). Mabel was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, on March 18th 1903. By 1915 the family had moved to live in New Jersey. In 1922, Mabel married Theodore R Wilson back in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They went on to have one child, a daughter named Ethel. It would appear that Mabel lived then in Philadelphia for some years, before moving back to New Jersey later in life. Mabel was a widow by 1950. Her daughter Ethel passed away in 2011. Mabel herself died on August 11th 2014, aged 111 years, 146 days.
Mabel’s age was verified by Anson Davis and Waclaw Jan Kroczek, later validated by the GRG on May 13th 2016.
The Gerontology Research Group (GRG) is a global non-profit dedicated to validating, recording, and researching supercentenarians — those aged 110 or older. Founded in 1990, we focus on human longevity, healthy aging, and studying the lives of the world’s oldest people.
Our work requires significant funding for research, travel, and maintaining our website. Any financial support would greatly aid our mission to advance the understanding of human longevity.
