    Oldest and Youngest Inmates Executed in Each State

    This list catalogs the inmates who were oldest and youngest at the time of their executions. After the inmate's name, their age, year of execution and method of execution will be stated, followed by their links. Please note this site was not exclusively used. The searchable execution database on the Death Penalty Information Center was used, as was murderpedia to tiebreak some of the ones listed on DPIC. TDCJ's website was used for the state of Texas. This list was last updated February 25, 2023.

    Here is the list:
