Jennifer, Have you by chance called the Cemetery in Boone Co. and asked if they had a record of Minnie Perkins? They might even have the name of the funeral home and a copy clipping of her obituary. Ask all of this when you call the cemetery. If you get the name of the Funeral home and by the grace of god it is still in business, they should have a copy of her obituary in her file there. If not, start checking micro fiche for the local paper a day to 5 days after the date of this Minnie Perkins Death.
