BIOGRAPHY
Marie-Louise Taterode was born in the commune of Uzerche in the Corrèze department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of central France, on 17 July 1906. She was the youngest of five children. Her father, Pierre Taterode, a weaver, later became a miner, while her mother, whom she lost at the age of 10, worked as a seamstress at home. She left her birthplace at a young age to move to Champagnac, Cantal, and later followed her father to Clermont-Ferrand with her siblings, where she spent almost her entire life.
She worked for 13 years at the Pingeot company before spending 34 years at the Montlouis printing house, retiring at the age of 65.
She lived in her own home until April 2011, when, at the age of 104, she moved to the “Mon Repos” retirement home in Lezoux. When asked about the secret to her longevity, she humorously replied, “A glass of wine every day and no husband!” By the time she was 106, it was reported that she no longer read the newspaper or watched television. Although she had an interest in local politics, she never affiliated herself with any political party.
Marie-Louise Taterode passed away on 3 September 2020, at the age of 114 years, 48 days.
