County Centenarians
This section starts with our "Three century" folks and presents the remainder in roughly birth date order. Living a century is no longer a rarity, particularly for women, and I anticipate that the occurrences of this will increase steadily. If you have obits for centenarians buried, born or who lived locally please send them in. Photos also welcome.
