Jane "Jinny" Bunford, born on 26 July 1895 to John and Jane Bunford of Bartley Green, Birmingham UK, was at death one of the tallest women recorded in medical history.
She eventually grew to a standing height of 2.31 meters (7 feet 7 inches), becoming the tallest woman in the world at the time. However she suffered from kyphoscoliosis and had she been able to stand erect, would have measured 7 feet 11 inches. Her plaited hair was reported to measure 8 feet in length.
