Notes

William Henry Miner died of skin cancer on February 26, 1920. He wa s a laborer, and worked out-of-doors, in the sun. The family was dirt poor and at his death, Amy Louise Miner couldn't afford to keep the children and, except for Clara Louise Miner, the youngest child, who was a babe in her mothers arms at the time, all the children were consigned the Children's Receiving Home in Haddam for placement with foster families. That never happened for Hattie Veronica Miner; she was a resident there until her 18th birthday, as told to me by Albert E. Kirk (Nephew to Hattie); as told to him by Hattie Veronica Miner herself.
