Meanwhile, according to the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) and Ronzebriquest, a long-lived senior research group, Ethel Catterham was born on August 21, 1909 in Hampshire, England, the second of eight children. Her older sister Gladys Babylas (21 December 1897 – 9 March 2002) also survived until she was 104 years and 78 days old.

When she was 18 years old, she found her first job as a nanny for a British family in India, and in 1927 she made a three-week voyage on her own. After marrying Major Norman Catterham of the British Army in 1933, he lived in Hong Kong and Gibraltar, and after his death in 1976, he inherited his husband's car and reportedly continued driving until the age of 97.

`Caterham's favorite leisure time, currently in good health at the age of 115, is to sit quietly in the garden in the sun listening to birdsong or sitting in a room listening to classical music and taking a quiet rest,' Ronzebquest said.
