398Hello Darla & other listers,
It's always nice to find a new cousin! Minerva is my 2nd gr grandmother. I will be glad to share what information I have and would really like to hear what your connection is.
I agree to just about everything that Dell sent on the children of Jemima BOONE & Henry ZUMWALT. I have most of the spouses of their children & some of their descendants, as well as ancestors of Jemima & Henry.
For the time being, I will give more information on Minerva Ann ZUMWALT. Minerva was b. 7 Oct. 1845-Polk Co.-Mo. There is conflicting info on her first marriage. Mar. record, 12 Mar 1860-Greene Co.-Mo. says his name is William E. DARRINGTON. Her second mar. record gives her last name as DUNNINGTON. They had one daughter, Martha Ann(Angeline) b. 6 Mar 1864-Fannin Co.-Tx. d. 12 Jan. 1945-Ardmore-Carter Co.-Ok. Mar. R.E. RIDDLE. Have been unable to find out what ended the first marriage. 2nd mar. was to Mathew "Lilburn" MAXWELL, on 17 July 1866-Fannin Co.-Tx. He was b. 10 Mar. 1845-Greene Co.-Mo. to Mathew & Cynthia MAXWELL. Lilburn d. 11 Mar. 1910 in Dolbery-Pontotoc Co.-Ok. Minerva d. 2 Jan. 1929-Roff-Pontotoc Co.-Ok. They are both buried in a private cem. in Roff.
