mary ramsey wood aka mary ramsey lemons wood -lrb- may 20 , 1787/circa 1810 -lrb- disputed -rrb- -- january 1 , 1908 -rrb- was an american pioneer known as the `` mother queen of oregon . ''
she was reported to be the oldest living person in the united states when she died , supposedly at the age of 120 .
it is said she traveled to the oregon territory across the oregon trail at the age of 66 .
there is evidence this age claim was inaccurate or exaggerated , however , and she may have been between 96 and 98 when she died .
