    Notes 
    • There is no sign of Charles's birth being registered*. According to the marriage details on FreeGEN, Charles's father's name was George CLUBB, a farmer.
      *but as Charles Jim Minter, he was christened in Thornham Magna on 20 May 1838.

      1851 census: aged 13, he was a pauper in the House of Industry at Wortham, Suffolk.

      1861 census: in Orford Street, St Matthew Ipswich, Suffolk, Charles (21, apprentice tailor).

      On 10 April 1867, at the General Gaol Delivery held at Ipswich, Charles and Harriet Minter were acquiited and discharged, having been charged with larceny. It's not clear whether this refers to this Charles Minter but it seems likely.

      1871 census: at 6 Friendhip Lane, Hartlepool, Durham, Charles (32, tailor), 'Harrotte' (30), Alfred (4, scholar), Ann E (2) and Sarah E (5 months).

      1881 census: at 32 Stainton Street Back, Stranton, Durham. Harriet (widow, 35, charwoman, born 'Twotshall' [presmably Tivetshall], Norfolk), Alfred C (15, rivetter lad (ship)), Elizabeth A (13) and Sarah Ellen (10).

      Harriet may have re-married in Q3 1884 (Sculcoates 9d/275) to William Ravenscroft, Thomas Stephens or Herbert Wilshere, but not found in 1891 or 1901 censuses.
