    Notes 
    • See father's Notes for the justification for including George Washington Minter as the son of John Trabue Minter. It's assumed that George was included in the 1820 and 1830 censuses with his father. Later censuses are as follows:

      1840 United States Federal Census (indexed as George W Minta by ancestry.com): George W Minter in Hardeman County, Tennessee:
      Free White Persons - Males - Under 5: 1 [presumably William]
      Free White Persons - Males - 20 thru 29:1
      Free White Persons - Females - Under 5:1 [presumably Sarah]
      Free White Persons - Females - 20 thru 29:1
      Persons Employed in Agriculture:1
      Free White Persons - Under 20:2
      Free White Persons - 20 thru 49:2
      Total Free White Persons:4
      Total All Persons - Free White, Free Colored, Slaves:4

      1850 United States Federal Census: in Hardeman County, Tennessee (all MINTER):
      George (40, farmer, born Kentucky), Louisa (30, born North Carolina), Sarah (14, born Tennessee), William (11, born Tennessee), George (8, born Tennessee)), James (3, born Tennessee) and Leanders (1, male, born Tennessee). Also four WARN children, all born Tennessee: Angerona (13, female), Thomas (11), Christopher (9) and Leargus (7, male).

      1860 United States Federal Census (indexed as G W MONTEE by ancestry.com): in Hardeman County, Tennessee (all MINTER): G W (49, farmer, born Kentucky), Martha R (31, born North Carolina), George S (18, born Tennessee)), James F (13, born Tennessee), Leonidas (10, male, born Tennessee), Eugenia C (5), Thomas S (2) and Anna S (3 months).

      It appears that George died between 1860 and 1870: although it doesn't say so explicitly, the 'M R Minter' a female in the 1870 census was presumably a widow:

      1870 United States Federal Census (indexed as M R MINTER by ancestry.com): in District 4, Hardeman County, Tennessee (all MINTER): M R (41, no occupation listed, born North Carolina), E C (15, female), T S (12, male), A S (10, female), W A (8, male), M G (6, female), P A (4, male) and A C (3, male). All the children were born in Tennessee.

      1880 United States Federal Census: in District 4, Hardeman County, Tennessee (all MINTER): Martha (50, widowed, farmer, born North Carolina), Eugenia (25, daughter, at home), Thomas (22, son, teacher), Anna (20, daughter, at home), Washington (18, son, at home), Martha (16, daughter, at home), Percival (15, son, at home) and Arthur (12, son, at home). All the children were born in Tennessee. Also a boarder, Charles WORRELL (16, at school, born Tennessee).
