    Notes 
    • 1911 census: Arthur appears as Arthur William MINTER, Acting Bombadier, aged 29, born Woodbridge, in No. 15 Company, Royal Garrison Artillery, stationed at the Military Barracks, Tower Hill, Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa.
      Arthur joined the Royal Regiment of Artillery on 25 April 1901 at Woodbridge when he was 20 years 8 months old. At that time he said he'd previously served in the 3rd Battalion of the Suffolk Regiment, from which he had bought himslf out.

      Arthur had died by 1939 so the 1939 Register doesn't include him. His widow was living next door to Arthur's brother Ernest:
