Titles[]

Which titles did Mrs. Robeson hold at the time of her death. Was she the oldest living person in Illinois? Was she also the oldest living person born in Iowa? Jim1997 (talk) 18:54, December 10, 2015 (UTC)

According to Table A, she was the oldest living person born in Iowa, but only 3rd oldest overall behind Mary Kelly and Bertha Blair. She was the second oldest living person in Illinois behind Wilhelmina Kott and 5th oldest overall. CGT dk (talk) 19:49, December 10, 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for the information. I prefer to include the various titles held by the individual, in the lead paragraph of the article, rather than just having "was an American supercentenarian". Jim1997 (talk) 20:23, December 10, 2015 (UTC)
