Biography[]
Jozsefne Szucs was born as Erzsebet Slotka in the town of Torokszentmiklos, Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County, Austria-Hungary (present-day Hungary) on 28 October 1890. Allegedly, her mother lived to be 104 and her father lived to be 106. She married a farmer in 1911; they had 11 children. She got widowed in 1947. She moved into her son's house in Tiszatenyo in 1951.
Szucs was totally blind and hard of hearing in her last 30 years, but despite this, she was in good health until her death. Her daughter-in-law took care of her. She didn't take any medicine, although she drank a little bit of spirits every day. As a religious woman, she said believing in God is the secret of her long life.
She became the oldest known living person in Hungary, following the death of 108-year-old Ferencné Lázár on 19 November 1998.
Jozsefne Szucs died in Tiszatenyo, Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County, Hungary on 17 December 2000 due to heart failure at the age of 110 years, 50 days. Following her death, then 107-year-old Ferencne Vadasz became the oldest known living person in Hungary.
