Notes
- "Juleyan's daughter Peggy married a Willie Smith, I believe. Mary married Lonnie England. Minolevia ''innie' married Willie Cordell. My records show that Minnie and Willie had two daughters, Mary and Martha. I have Mary marrying someone named 'Clemons' and Martha marrying a 'Freeman.'"

I have found no record for William and Minnie in the 1910 census. In the 1920 census, William has a different wife, seeming to indicate that Minnie died sometime before 1920. No death or burial record has been found.
