Who is the oldest resident in Maine?

As of early 2025, Maine was named the oldest state in the nation, with a median age of 44.8. This demographic trend fuels interest in individuals of exceptional longevity, but confirming the identity of the absolute oldest resident can be difficult. While a single official title is often elusive, recent news highlighted Edgar Post of Spruce Head, who celebrated his 104th birthday in March 2025, as a prominent centenarian.
