Hartford Courant, Hartford, CT, Sunday, may 31, 1914, pg 9:
"Henry S. Minor, one of the best known residents of Terryville, died on Friday after a long illness. He was born In Harwinton July 17, 1834, and went to Terryville while a young man to enter the employ of the lock factory, afterwards conducting the livery business, and owned for several years the present Austin House property. For over thirty years he conducted his farm at the end of High street, the Wyllys Atwater farm. His parents were Hiram Minor and Chloe Dutton, who was a granddaughter of David Dutton. Hiram was the son of Joshua Minor and Diadama Alcott, who was sister to the father of A. Bronson Alcott. Mr. Minor married Theresa, daughter of Henry Atwater, to whom five children were born, on daughter, Eva being the only surviving one.
"The Minor woods, which he owned, are about to be cut down, the timber having been recently sold to Ely Brothers of Manchester. Mr. Minor was a great reader and a pithy commenter on current events.
"The funeral will be held Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and will be private."
