Neither of the above ladies are listed as a choice
The Guinness Record states in 2016 that
EMMA MARTINA LUIGIA MORANO is the oldest living person

Susannah died May of 2016 born 1889. EMMA MARTINA LUIGIA MORANO born 1889 in Italy didn't die till 2017. EMMA MARTINA LUIGIA MORANO is the actual correct answer and was not listed as a choice

No correct answer. Emma Martina Luigia Morano of Vercelli, Italy, is now the world's Oldest living person. Born on 29 November 1899, Ms Morano is 116 years 169 days old, as of today, 16 May 2016.

Sussanah may have been American but apparently the record in 2016 goes to an Italian, Emma Martina Luigia Morano, so sadly another incorrect answer supplied.

When you ask in the world, Dhaqabo Ebba of Ethiopia is recognized as being 160 years old that remembers the invasion of Italy in 1895. And you give his name as a choice to choose from. Why???

I agree Rick and I'd bet there people who lost count of their age. :-)

I was sure it was a woman but I picked Henry because this keeps changing when people die. The photo threw me off too. Now it seems Sky Nismo holds the record at 454yrs old. With his immortal bloodline he's set for a long time. :-)
