Below are photos from the Mink (or, the Albert Mink) Cemetery in the Walnut Grove valley near Skeggs Creek. Many members of the Mink family are buried here, most likely including John and Nancy Wilson Mink, Albert's parents, who died in 1859 and 1865, respectively. Some marked graves include: William A. Mink (see photo below); Celia Jane Mink Cromer and her husband, Adam (see photo below); and Rebecca Mink Doan. Unmarked graves are supposed to include Albert and Felix Mink (sons of John and Nancy, as was William A.) and various family members. John Mink bought the land from Henry B. Linville in 1855. Linville had probably purchased it from Holbert McClure. |
