    • The Story Resource book offers their marriage date as 22 Mar 1884. However, the Howell Co Marriage book states: S. P. Story- Minnie M. Hill 23 Feb 1884, by J. W. Mustion, MG.

      The latter must be in error, as the marriage license application is dated 22 March 1884.

      It states Sam's age as 28, and Minnie's age as 14.
