Minnie was the 7th child born to George H. McDonald and Sarah F. Martin.
The following was written about Minnie in the book "Notes on Early Clark County, Kansas" by the Kansas State Historical Society:
{When the town of Lexington, Kansas was first being built, Minnie died due to a epidemic of typhoid fever. There wasn't a cemetery yet, so she was buried on her brother, George W. McDonald's place. Three acres of his land was purchased for the Lexington Cemetery a few years later. So, Minnie was the first person buried in this cemetery.}
