Minnie was the daughter of Gus Brown and Minnie Engleking and the wife of Harry Driskill.

NO STONE 2012 (There is a small upright stone in area that she is suppose to be buried but has no markings) Lot owner was Harry Driskell.

Suggested edit: Suggestion for Bio Information: Minnie and Harry Driskill were married in 1918 between 9 Apr 1918 and 21 Dec 1918, but the location is unknown.

The records below are provided solely as proof for my edits and it is not my intent that they be placed on the memorial; the info above, yes, but the info below, no. The info on her memorial seems to be based solely on her Missouri death certificate (and I suspect that's all that was available); it's close, but other records provide additional info. If the 1900 Census is correct, she could not have been born in 1901, but rather 1900. The records I found have her maiden name as both Braun and Brown, but her parents have it as Braun. No marriage record could be found for Minnie. Other researchers having that info may be able to come up with something more definitive. An edit on Harry's memorial has been submitted to add Minnie as a spouse.
Thanks,
Dave
