Jeremiah Minard
(1841-_____)

The 1880 census shows Jeremiah and Susan and their adopted two-year-old daughter Nettie (1878- ? ) in Newark. Tragically, it states that the 39-year-old Jeremiah was an engineer who had "lost his right hand, became insane" and was "in Essex County insane retreat, is like a child." The record states that Jeremiah was born in Maryland and his adopted daughter in Pennsylvania.

Tragically, but blessedly, perhaps, Jeremiah's miseries ended with his passing, at age 37, on July 16, 1881. His tired remains were placed at eternal rest in Newark's Fairmount Cemetery.

At age 45, afflicted with peritonitis, Susan died on Dec. 5, 1882, after suffering for two weeks. She too was laid to rest in Fairmount Cemetery. (Her New Jersey death certificate provides her age as 47.)
