  Notes	William S. Minter never married, according to Clifton Minter's tree. 1840 United States Federal Census: in Digby's District 377, Jasper, Georgia Free white male persons 20 thru 29 - 2 Only William S Minter's name is listed against this entry, which is two lines above that for William's mother. The other 20 - 29 year-old male could have been a brother of William. The following 1860 United States Federal Census: in Jasper, Georgia is probably for William S Minter and his (much) younger brother Richard: William MINTER (45, farmer, born North Carolina) and Richard Minter (23, farmer, born Georgia). William S MINTER appears in the 1860 Slave Schedule for Jasper County as the owner of 19 slaves of both sexes and of various ages between 6 and 55. The 1864 Census for Re-Organizing the Georgia Militia (at Ancestry.com, Feb 2015) includes: MINTER, Wm. S., 51 yrs., Farmer, b. GA in the list for the 28th Senatorial District - 379th Militia District I can't find any later records for William S Minter. There's a record, with picture, of the burial of William S Minter, born May 10 1810, died July 5 1897 aged 87 yrs 1 mo 268 days, in the Minter Cemetery, Jasper County, Georgia. This almost certainly is for this William S MInter although the birth date preceeds that we have of his parents' marriage.
