  Notes	The birth date shown here is the one widely found in Member Trees at Ancestry. I don't know where it comes from but the year at least tallies with the tombstone, which shows '1881 - 1934', and the month/year agree with the 1900 census entry. 1900 United States Federal Census: in Woodstock, Cherokee, Georgia (all MINTER born Georgia), James W (head, born Feb 1881, 19, married 3 years, day laborer), Lucinda (wife, born Aug 1869, 30, married 3 years, 4 children, 2 living), William L (son, born Oct 1896, 3) and Henry H (son, born Aug 1899, 8 months).
