Delphia Gay Hornbeck as a young women, also at the age of 5 and with William H. Minter and son, M.R. Minter Sr.
My sister Peggy is corresponding with another Hornbeck and they
exchanged
information, and found that our James Hornbeck and Mary (Polly)
Brown
matched up. So we were able to fill in a lot more information on
the Hornbeck line. The above Probate document was from her.
She also sent quite a few marriage bonds which were a common practice
back
then. One of them applies but the others have'nt been confirmed
yet.
Here is one of those bonds: 1
