Documentation:
* Gibson County Clerk's Office, marriage of William to Minerva.
* Gibson County Health Department, births of children and death of William.
* Oak Hill Cemetery, Patoka, Gibson County, IN, tombstones of William, Minerva and several children.
* Pension file 42,610 for proof of Minerva's birth.
* Vanderburgh County Health Department for death of Bernice. Most other children died in Gibson County.

Notes:
* I do have the obituary for Minerva but I never did find her death certificate. It is believed she died in Pike County, IN and the obit is believed to be from a newspaper in that area. She resides beside William in the cemetery.
