About this person
Delina Filkins was an American supercentenarian, and the first person verifiably to reach the age of 113. Noted during her own lifetime for her advanced age in the local and national press, she lived an otherwise ordinary life. Filkins' case has since been noted as particularly important, being the first person in recorded demographic history to have lived to the ages of 112 and 113. Her age at death was not surpassed until 1979.
