Subject

Veterans--Florida
Korean War, 1950-1953

Description

The outward-bound passenger list of the USNS Henry Gibbins, which was a transport ship active in the Korean War. The document lists the passenger's family name, United States passport number, place of birth, date and place of naturalization, the length of time the passenger intended to remain aboard and the country of destination.

A notable individual listed in this record is Albert Lee Minyard Jr. (1917-1986). Born in Brooks, Georgia, Minyard served in the United States Army from 1935-1941 and from 1948 to 1958. In December of 1948, he married his wife, Roslyn Minyard, and eventually had two boys with her. The family moved to Hillsborough County, Florida, where Alberty passed away on January 13, 1986. He is memorialized in Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell, Florida. Roslyn survived him, living in the Tampa and St. Petersburg area until her own death on May 2, 2000. She is memorialized with Albert in Bushnell.

In 2017, the University of Central Florida was one of three universities selected to launch the National Cemetery Administration’s Veterans Legacy Program Project. The program engaged a team of scholars to make the life stories of veterans buried in the Florida National Cemetery available to the public. The project engages UCF students in research and writing and fosters collaboration between students, faculty and local Central Florida schools to produce interactive curriculum for k-12 students. The corresponding website exhibit uses RICHES Mosaic Interface to create a digital archive of related data. The public can use the project-developed augmented-reality app at more than 100 gravesites at the Florida National Cemetery, where they can access the UCF student-authored biographies of veterans.
