2205 In our last issue we made an unfortunate mistake in saying that the Harry Winders from whom his wife is seeking a divorce, had conducted the Malta Record. The facts are that the Winders from whom a divorce is asked never lived in Malta and is no connection to the Winders who has been editor of the paper there. The man of whom his wife seeks to be relieved is the Harry Winders who was a resident of Sycamore, whose second wife, to whom he was married on Clare in May, 1903, was at one time a resident of Malta. WINDERS, Harry (I25259)

2210 In summary, this is what I think I know about Thomas:

Thomas was born in Ohio sometime between 1814 and 1816. We know this almost for certain, since this is what he consistently told census takers, in Ohio, in Iowa, and in California.

Thomas was apparently a Dunkard. I don't know if he was that because of his upbringing, or because he married into a Dunkard family. We know for sure that his wife's grandfather, Jacob Whitmore, was a Dunkard, as was his wife's father, George Harman.

According to family legend, Thomas and Eliza spoke German in the home, and their children learned English only when they went to school.

The earliest record I have found for Thomas is the 1840 Federal Census, which shows him living with his wife, Eliza, and his son Nelson, in Coshocton County, Ohio.
Thomas lived on his father-in-law George Harman's land in Pike County, Coshocton County, Ohio, living near his wife's grandfather, Jacob Whitmore.

The next thing we know about Thomas is that he migrated to Bladensburg, Wapello County, Iowa. He appears in the 1847 Iowa census in Bladensburg, living next door to his father-in-law George Harman and a Michael Harman of unknown relationship. Also in Iowa, in neighboring Jefferson County, are Samuel and Benjamin Whitmore.

Today, Bladensburg, Iowa is a very small farm community, consisting of a church, an antique store, and a community center. A couple of miles down the road is the Bladensburg Cemetery.

In Iowa, Thomas and Eliza produced six more children, for a total of seven: Nelson, Rheubin, Levi Thomas, Phebe Catherine, John Henry, Elizabeth Ellen, and Marcus Duane. Like their father, these children wandered far from their parents as they became adults.

Now we see that Thomas had, indeed, a restless foot. The next record of him shows him in El Dorado County, California in 1860, at the age of 47. He is there without his family, who are still in Wapello County, Iowa. His youngest child was then 10 years old.

There is no record of Thomas' death. Unfortunately, there was a fire in El Dorado County that destroyed the records in the courthouse. We do not know if he died while still in the gold fields, or on the way home. Family legend suggests he died in 1862. Thomas appeared from nowhere and disappeared into nowhere. And such is the nature of this particular brick wall.

After Thomas' death, Eliza married Martin Miller. She is buried in the Bladensburg Cemetery as the wife of Martin Miller. There is no mention of Thomas or his children. Martin is buried in nearby Agency Cemetery next to his first wife.

At the time of Thomas' death, his male children headed west. Nelson, now calling himself Frank (as in Francis N. Winder) and Marcellus ended up in Washington Territory, Levi settled in Nevada, and John Henry settled in Des Moines.

2213 In the fall of 1918, Albert presided at a dinner given at the Scottish Rite Cathedral. In his talk to the new members he mentioned the events in a man's life which he remembers with greatest pride. "In my life", he said, "I remember best my first pair of red-topped boots, my first day of school, my first sweetheart, and my marriage. Then the birth of my two sons, the day I joined the Masonic Order, the time my boys went into the service of their country. Proudest of all will be the day when those two boys of mine come marching home."

That day never came. An hour later, word was received of the death of his son, Paul; killed in action in France. Seven months later, Albert C. died in Newport News, Va from lobar pneumonia and the effects of gas received on the battlefields of France.
