Unless I utterly misunderstand the following quotation, MINOR WAS AN
AMERICAN.

Among others forced to abandon the Dictionary by death or illness were
two whose daily contribution from the start had been indispensable, Dr.
Fitzedward Hall and Dr. W. C. Minor. Bother were Americans and both
were sufferers from persecution mania.  (K.M. Elisabeth Murray, Caught
In the Web of Words.  Oxford: OUP, 1977, p 303)
