There is insufficient information on his children.

Gomes was born on August 4, 1895, according to his 1917 marriage certificate, implying he was born before the death of Queen Victoria of England.

Willyan José Rodrigues de Souza, a civil registry legal counsel, acknowledged to a local station that Mr. Gomes’ age was correct and that he was born before 1900. His family, however, was skeptical of his age, noting past instances of erroneous documentation.

Gomes’ granddaughter Eliane Ferreira, explained to local media why the family was unsure of his age.

“There is a lady nearby who is 98 years old. She says she knew him when he was just a boy. That’s when we became curious to confirm his age and looked up the registry office to find out what was correct,” she said.

She, however, added that he was definitely over 110 years of age.

According to the New York Post, it is unknown whether Guinness World Records will review the Brazilian’s papers. Maria Branyas Morer, 116, is the oldest living person, according to Guinness World Records. On March 4, 1907, Ms Morer was born.

According to Guinness World Records, the world’s oldest living man is Venezuela’s Juan Vicente Perez Mora, who is 114 years old.
