Oscar H. Yancey family line...
Here is the info I have on Oscar H. Yancey and his wife Minnie Cornelia Ida Hunt (which I have found to be spelled Cordelia in other locations. I am inclined and have reason to believe it possibly is Cordelia, as my grandmother (my father's mother)named her second born daughter Cordelia.(and I have spotted names being repeated through-out the generations) This is though, just a presumption and I have no official records that Minnie's middle name was infact spelled with a "D" in stead of an "N". (Or vica-versa.)
Oscar's and Minnie's info is as follows:
- Oscar H. Yancey b. 7 Feb 1878 in Ga. d. 3 Sept 1905 in Gwinnett Co. Ga. It is listed as fact that he died of Typhoid.
- Minnie Cornelia (or Cordelia) Ida A. Hunt b. 19 Oct 1877 d. 16 Apr 1941
- They are both buried in Snellville City Cemetery in Gwinnett Co., Georgia
