(m. 1923-1966, his death)Children 4 Delma Dorothie Kollar (née Lowman; born 31 October 1897) is an American supercentenarian. On 16 November 2011, she is one of the oldest 100 verified people ever. On her last birthday, she became one of only 88 people to have attained the age of 114. Before recent research, she was thought to have been born in 1898. However, from the data in the census closest to her date of birth, and due to the fact that her younger sister was born in February 1899, this was proved to have been wrong.
