Biography

Minnie Frederika Seyfried was born on 27 August 1846 in Württemberg, Germany, 1848 in Berlin, Germany, according to her 1929 newspaper obituary. I consider the 1880 and 1900 censuses more accurate. DLB 2020.2,1 She married Isaac Denton on 13 June 1872 in Christian Co., IL. She died on 10 March 1929 in Windsor, Shelby Co., IL.

She was buried in March 1929 in Oak Ridge Cemetery, Springfield, Sangamon Co., IL, Findagrave #32871683.


Note: Minnie's maiden name was a German name, probably Seyfried. Her newspaper obituary spelled it Seyfreit, which is possible, but it also gives her birthplace as Berlin, Germany, which is nowhere near Württemberg which she reported in 1880, so the credibility of the obituary is not high. It gives her first husband's name as John States, but it was apparently "Spates" as per her daughter Carrie/Cordelia's 1880 census record and Christian County marriage record. John Spates died in 1870. DLB 2020.
