Notes for Alexander Samuel & Minnie M. B. (Family)
I have not found a marriage record for Alex and Minnie; her maiden name is from birth records for their children (some of which have the father’s name as Alex S. and some as Samuel A.)
This is not intended to represent a complete family group. I am entering them into my database only to document the parents of Anne E. Turner who married David Simmons Hall.
