The oldest person to have lived was 122 at her death, but are their others with undocumented claims?

She was a French woman from Provence who’s life was fully documented. She famously sold Vincent Van Gogh his painting supplies. The best story (that I’m aware of) has her at the age of 88 selling the rental rights to her apartment to a man of 56, needless to say she outlived him, and by many years.
