The name of the oldest person in the UK - the lady who has just turned 111 years old - is Lucy d'Abreu and she lives in Stirling, Scotland. Hence she is not - as Sft points out - the oldest in England. Having said that, her name isn't terribly Scottish, so I'm not sure we can really claim her either!

and a link will take you to a website all about her.

If you click on http://www.goanvoice.org.uk/newsletter/2001/issue2
9-jul20.htm and scroll down to the section headed "In the News", you will see a quote from the lady herself. It says: "Being Indian was a positive advantage for us." She was born near Goa and her maiden name was d'Souza, two facts which would strongly suggest a Portuguese family background. She spent most of her life in Ireland and then moved to Scotland. I can't find any reference to suggest she ever so much as set foot in England, but I'm pretty sure she isn't English!
