Here's more mystery... Who was Minty ROUSE? He/she died 7 Mar 1958 at age 83 y 5 m 29 d, which would make him/her born 1875ish. If Minty's a female, what was her maiden name??? He/She and these other Rouse folks are buried in the Riggins cemetery... ROUSE, HENRY, son of JAS. S. & Ann d. 20 June 1893 ROUSE, SARAH LYDIA Wife of Richard E. nee FRANCIS d 9 Nov 1919 age 43 y 10 m 5 d ... where is Richard E. Rouse buried? Sarah Lydia Francis Rouse is the daughter of Susan E. RIGGINS & Henry C. Francis, but how are how are Henry Rouse and his parents related to Richard E., and how are all of them related to William Riggin Rouse, who died in Green City, Sullivan Co., MO on Nov 19, 1913? He married Sarah Ann DAMRALL abt 1854ish. Why is his middle name Riggin??? It surely must be a family name... William Riggin Rouse's parents were Samuel Rouse & Louisa Francis SHAVER. They married in KY, but he died in Sullivan Co., MO and she died somewhere in MO. Other children of Samuel Rouse/Louisa Francis Shaver are Sarah b 1830 James Harrison b 1838 m.

Dear Joanne, I don't have any information for you other than "Minty" was a nickname for Arraminta, a somewhat frequent female name in the 19th century. It is certainly possible it is a man's nickname, but not very likely.
