    British woman, 115, now world

    A British woman has become the oldest person in the world following the de@th of a Brazilian nun. 

    115-year- old Ethel May Caterham, from Surrey, gained the title after Inah Canabarro d!ed aged 116 on Wednesday, April 30. 

    Ethel is the last known living person born in the decade of the 1900s. 

    Inah, who survived two world wars and was blessed by Pope Francis, had become the world’s oldest person in January after the de@th of Tomiko Itooka from Japan.

    Ethel May Caterham, who lives in Surrey, was born on August 21, 1909, in Shipton Bellinger, Hampshire. 

    Ethel is now 115 and is thought to be the last surviving subject of Edward VII.

    The super-centenarian – a person who is aged 110 or older – is the very last known living person to be born in the 1900s decade. 

    Upon reaching the milestone age last year, she became only the third British person to ever reach 115, and the first since Annie Jennings more than two decades earlier in 1999. 

    At the age of 18, Ethel was employed as an au pair to a military family in India where she lived for three years. 

    She returned to the UK in 1931 and met her future husband Norman at a dinner party. They married at Salisbury Cathedral in 1933 where her husband had been a choirboy. He later became a lieutenant colonel in the Royal Army Pay Corps, and the couple lived in Harnham before being stationed in Hong Kong and later Gibraltar. 

    While living in Hong Kong, Ethel set up a nursery to teach English, and in Gibraltar, the couple had two daughters who they raised back in England. 

    She has been living in a care home in Lightwater, where she celebrated her last birthday with family and friends. 

    The soon-to-be 116-year-old has a large family, with three granddaughters and five great-grandchildren. 

    They attribute her longevity to a life of resilience and adaptability. 

    The Gerontology Research Group and LongeviQuest have both verified her age and status.
