    Notes:

    "William H. Zentmire was born in Warren County, Ohio, September 1, 1844. His father, David Zentmire, was a native of the same state and was of German ancestry. The paternal grandfather served as a soldier in the War of 1812. David Zentmire was a carpenter by trade and followed that pursuit in early manhood, but afterward turned his attention to farming and became fairly well-to-do. His political allegiance was given to the Whig Party and he afterward supported the Republican Party. He married Diana Minick, who was born in Pennsylvania and was a member of the Quaker or Friends church. She represented one of the old Pennsylvania Dutch families. By her marriage she became the mother of the following named: Angeline, the wife of Robert J. Black, a retired farmer living in Chautauqua County, Kansas; Amanda, deceased; Samantha, who makes her home with her sister Angeline; William H.; Sylvester, deceased; Wilson, who is superintendent of the county infirmary of Mercer County, Illinois; Elizabeth, the wife of Hale McClure, a cattleman of North Dakota; George, a cattleman of Montana; Harry, who is engaged in farming near Big Mound, Iowa; Alice, the widow of Horace McLean, of Red Oak, Iowa; and Eva, the wife of Adam Hemingway and a resident of Red Oak, Iowa."

    Pages 734 & 735

    David married Dianna Amanda MINICK 26 May 1840, Warren Co., Ohio. Dianna was born 26 Apr 1820, Ohio; died 4 Jul 1869, Millersburg Twp., Mercer Co., Illinois; was buried Brick Cemetery, Joy, Mercer Co., Illinois. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Dianna Amanda MINICK was born 26 Apr 1820, Ohio; died 4 Jul 1869, Millersburg Twp., Mercer Co., Illinois; was buried Brick Cemetery, Joy, Mercer Co., Illinois.

    Notes:

    Although the 1907 History of Pottawattamie County, Iowa, pages 734 & 735 says Dianna was born in Pennsylvania, and the 1860 US Census recorded her being born in Virginia, David and Dianna's marriage record indicated she was born in Ohio, as did the History of Mercer and Henderson Counties, 1882, so we are going with Ohio.
