'''Lucy Hannah''' (née '''Terrell''';<ref name="TableA">{{cite web|url=http://www.grg.org/Archives/B2.htm|title=Official Tables from the International Committee on Supercentenarians as of 2007|work=grg.org}}</ref> July 16, 1875 – March 21, 1993) was an American [[supercentenarian]]. Hannah is the [[List of supercentenarians from the United States|second-oldest person ever from the United States]] and the world's third-oldest verified person ever, after [[Jeanne Calment]] and [[Sarah Knauss]]. She was never the world's oldest living person since Jeanne Calment was born five months before Hannah and still alive at the time of Hannah's death.<ref name="A" /> |

Before her death, Hannah claimed to be a year older, but investigation by the [[Social Security Administration]]'s "Kestenbaum" study in 2003 proved that her age at death was actually 117 years, 248 days.<ref name="A">{{cite book | page=249 | first=Robert | last= Young | title=Supercentenarians (Demographic Research Monographs) |editor1-first=Heiner |editor1-last=Maier | publisher=Springer |date=May 2010 | ISBN=978-3-642-11519-6}} ([http://www.demogr.mpg.de/books/drm/007/3-3.pdf pdf])</ref> |

At the time of her death in March 1993, Hannah was the oldest American ever and second oldest person ever whose age has been verified, behind only Jeanne Calment. (However, [[Shigechiyo Izumi]] was still believed to be older at the time of Hannah's death.)<ref name="TableA" /><ref>{{cite book|title=Guinness Book of World Records|year=2011|page=211|author=Craig Glenday}}</ref> |
