Biography

Also often written as Abraham Burton Mingus. His body was taken back to NC for burial. Mrs. Bernay's book convincingly connects the George Mingus of Burke and Lincoln Counties with his sons Abraham b. 1781, Henry Mingus b. 1782 who remained in Lincoln County and married Rheuanna Gant, and George Mingus who married Sary Baker in 1809 in Lincoln County.

In 1816, Abraham sold the land he had inherited from George, and bought no land in that county afterwards.

Abraham Mingus, b. 1781 married Rebecca Stilwell on 9 August 1816 in Haywood County, North Carolina.^[1] They lived there after that, and named their first son George.
