RESEARCH NOTES:
- Birth date of 1888 highly suspect, considering marriage date etc.. - corrected to 1868
- The 1901 Census show the family living in the Hubert Compton household. Was Minnie E. listed as daughter of Hubert and living in his household at the time of the 1901 Census with her husband and three children, and born 09-Jan-1872? Hubert did have a daughter Minnie E., but if the Census refer to her, where was Stanley's wife? (see marriage # 114 Margaret "Maggie" Emma Mills) [as Stanley’s wife Minnie C, b. 1868, died in 1904, she may have been an invalid as early as 1901 and in a hospital - believe the Minnie E. listed in 1901 census is Hubert’s daughter.]
