  Notes	The following is a transcript of a newspaper cutting from The Bakersfield Californian, 22 April 1924, page 9. It appears at findgarve.com: PIONEER MATRON CALLED BY DEATH Mrs. Louise Minter Crossed Plains With Ox Team; Dies at Stockton Mrs. Louise Minter, aged 85, well known pioneer matron of Bakersfield and Kern county, died April 19 at Stockton, where she has resided for the past three years. The body was brought to the Payne & Son mortuary Monday night, and funeral services were held this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Rev. E R Fuller officiated. Interment was in Union cemetery. Mrs. Minter was the widow of Monroe Minter, who predeceased her ten years ago. With her husband, she came across the plains to California from Mississippi in an ox train in 1851. The couple settled first in Los Angeles and came to Kern county in 1862. They settled at Havilah where Mr. Minter was many times a member of the jury at the county seat in the early day. The move to Bakersfield was made in 1861 and here John Minter was born. He claims to be the oldest living Bakersfield-born resident. Mrs. Minter is survived by her sons, John, Jesse and C. C. Minter, residents of Bakersfield; two daughters, Mrs J E Morrell of Tracy and Mrs. Howard Slater of Los Angeles, and other relatives.
