RESEARCH NOTE: The ancestry of Thomas Miner has been erroneously given in a publication in 1683 titled "An herauldical essay upon the surname of Miner," which traces this line back to royalty. An article named "The Curious Pedigree of Lt. Thomas Minor" by John A Miner and Robert F Miner and published in the NEGHS Register in Jul 1984, p182-5, indicates through research that the pedigree and the information in the 1683 publication is false, and may have been knowingly fabricated.
