Andrew Jackson "Uncle Jack" Spurlin (died 1923) was a North Carolina-born farmer and miller in Grayson County, Virginia. His grave memorial and obituary made him 105 or 106, but the 1860 and 1870 censuses put his birth around 1830. - Spurlin centenarians and longevity claims · Genealogy weak
Family trees, grave memorials and old newspapers credit several Spurlins with lifespans of more than 100 years. Census ages often disagree with these claims. This entry sets each claim beside the records found so far and lists modern centenarians covered in the press.
