Myrtle Jones

Myrtle Jones (18 April 1897 - 12 January 2009) was an Australian supercentenarian. At the time of her death aged 111 years, 269 days, she was not Australia's oldest living person, losing out to E. Beatrice Riley and not the world's oldest living person. She would have been celebrating her 112th birthday on 18 April 2009 but missed it.

She lived in Australia for all of her life and they were very close to being one of the twin supercentenarians, expect she was born on 18 April 1897, and Jiroemon Kimura of Japan, born 19 April 1897. Both are almost twins.

Trivia

 * Despite being almost twin supercentenarians in the world, she was born in 1897, on April 18, expect Jiroemon Kimura was born on April 19.
