Biography[]
Evadney Talbot was born in Demerara-Mahaica, Guyana on 10 May 1912 to Louisa Hammer and Jonathan Watson. She became a reputable seamstress, specializing in dresses. She married Kingsel Talbot, with whom she had 5 children. She survived her husband and two children. She has 16 grandchildren, 40 great-grandchildren, and six great-great-grandchildren.
In 2020, Talbot was upset that she couldn't have a large 108th birthday party because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but did not fear the virus, saying she puts her trust in god.
Since the death of 112-year-old Ina Holder on 15 March 2021, Talbot is believed to be the oldest living person in Guyana.
In May 2022, she celebrated her 110th birthday and became a supercentenarian.
Talbot currently lives in Buxton, Demerara-Mahaica, Guyana at the age of 112 years, 274 days.
