That tree on Ancestry claims the parents of Minnie were Elijah Insole 1877 - 1937 and Margaret Docker 1877 - 1953

Which appears to match the 1911 census already posted

Their evidence for her birth appears to come from the 1911 census

The tree shows no date of death for her

Wow thank you! Maybe. I am guessing I need a certificate to see what other names appear on it?

Suspect Minnie could be a nickname as there is no birth in that name
