Ellen Dart (Crediton, England, November 1, 1854 - Great Paignton, England, October 8, 1963) was a centenarian from the UK. Research by Andrew Walton and others at the Gerontology Research Group validated her case in September 2007 as from February 17, 1963, the death of her predecessor, Lovisa Svensson, until her own death. The original birth and death documents were located for Miss Dart, who never married. Her death was covered by local newspapers, including page 5 of the October 9, 1963 Herald Express and page 12 of the October 12, 1963 Paignton Observer. She was said to have been in good shape until shortly before her death at age 108 years and 341 days.
