The world's oldest woman has died in her Texas home at the age of 115. Eunice Sanborn held the title of world's oldest person for less than three months following the death on November 4 of Eugenie Blanchard, a nun from the French West Indies. Sanborn credited her long life and good health to her belief in Jesus Christ and her salvation. She said that she owed her long life to minding her own business and not eating junk food. While an organisation that tracks super-centenarians listed Sanborn's age as 114, her family says it recorded her birth year as 1896 rather than 1895. Bessie Cooper of Georgia, born August 26, 1896, is now the world's oldest woman.
