By September 1876, however, Elias and family had moved on to Sedgwick County, Kansas, where he was farming half a section of land (320 acres) four miles northeast of Wichita. According to his own account, by the fall of 1877 he had plowed 225 acres and put it in winter wheat, built two houses, dug two wells, set out twelve hundred fruit trees, and made 40 tons of hay. By 1900, with the kids grown, Elias and Elizabeth were living in town on South Topeka Avenue in a house that is now part of the Winders Historic District of Wichita. Elias died on 16 January 1906, and his wife continued to live in Wichita (she was enumerated there, on South Topeka Ave age 79 in 1910 and the City Directory for 1916 listed her as a resident), and when she died on 25 September 1917, she was buried in Highland Cemetery in Wichita, next to her husband. | WINDERS, Elias Upton (I25207)

|
| 618 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Elizabeth Winders «/u»«/b» (1831-1903) was already in Ogle County by the 1850 census, when, at the age of 19, she was enumerated as a member of the household of Henry and Maria Artz. Two years later (8 March 1852), she married «u»«i»Nelson Tice «/u»«/i» in Ogle County who, presumably, died not too long afterwards, because in 1857, she married «u»John Henry Myers «/u» (b. Washington County, Maryland, 2 November 1835). John and Elizabeth (Winder Tice) Myers lived out their lives in Mount Morris, Illinois and had six children. | WINDERS, Elizabeth (I20898)
|
| 619 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Eva M. Winders «/u»«/b» was born 18 March 1900 in Oelwein, Iowa and moved with her mother and brother Carl to Zearing, Iowa and then to Pasco, Washington in 1920, where she lived with her half-brother John Morrison and worked as a stenographer in a railroad office( not surprising, since her brother was working in Pasco as a locomotive engineer.) Very shortly thereafter (their first child was born in early 1921), she met another railroad man, Thomas A. Galloway (1894-1930) from British Columbia, and married him. They had four children before Thomas died at age 36. Later in life, Eva married another railroad man, George W. Jernberg. He died on 10 April 1968, and Eva died in Monterey, California on 8 November 1987. | WINDERS, Eva May (I23641)

He came home to Sycamore and became a poultry and egg buyer and about 1921, married his wife «u»Gertrude «/u», a Canadian who emigrated to the U.S. about 1913.

Frank was still in the poultry business, Gertrude was working as a sales lady in a department store, and John was in school. The 1940 census caught Frank staying at a hotel in Lafayette, Indiana, presumably on a poultry buying business trip (but Gertrude and John don't seem to show up any where in 1940.) His 1942 World War II draft registration card placed him in Rogers Park, the most northerly Chicago neighborhood, working as a buyer for Getz Poultry and Eggs in Chicago. Some time between WW II and 1977, he moved to the west coast, and according to an obituary published in a Spokane newspaper, his (second) wife «u»Anne Baker «/u» Winders, died on 8 July 1969.

He married Mary Margaretta Watkins (1858-1944) on 23 February 1887 (Book C, page 594, Sedgwick County marriage records) and the couple lived with her parents at least through 1895 (according to the 1895 Kansas state census). By 1900, they had moved to Ottawa, Kansas (northeast of Wichita, nearer to Kansas City), where George worked as a real estate agent. By 1905, however, Mary had returned to Wichita and was living with her parents, Theodore and Hannah Watkins and her 11-year old daughter, Florence, but without her husband George. The 1910, 1920 and 1930 census data show Mary as 'divorced', and she continued to live with her mother and daughter in Wichita. By 1940, Mary was listed as 'widowed', but in fact, George didn't die until 27 March 1941; at the time he was a resident of the Jackson County, Missouri (Kansas City) Home for the Aged and Indigent, where he had been since at least 1935.

Harry seems to have been a rather feckless drifter, engaging in various pursuits ranging from working in a bakery in Chicago (1888), running the Johnsen House hotel in Sycamore (In 1892-that venture only lasted a year), working for the Chicago Great Western railroad (1893), working as the general engineer and mechanic at the Sycamore steam laundry (late 1893), "traveling about the country repairing tinware, pumps or anything else in that line" (1894), clerking in a drug and grocery store in Sycamore (1896), and working as a drayman (1898). Early in 1902 he signed on as one of a number of participants from the Ogle County area in a scheme to develop a "new colony" in Geraldine, Texas. He sold his home on Grant Street in Sycamore and left for Geraldine in mid-February, 1902 but by the end of March he was back in Sycamore, "dissatisfied with the prospects [in Geraldine]", according to the «i»Sycamore True Republican«/i». In August of the same year, Margaret, who had been an invalid afflicted with chronic kidney disease for nearly two years, died, leaving Harry with two children to care for: Jessie, age 15 and Norbert, age 8.

He then moved with his family to Wichita, Kansas and was enumerated there in the 1880 census. On 4 October 1881, he married «u»Matilda Ann Long «/u» in Wichita and the couple lived there the rest of their lives. Harry opened a business known as the Wichita Wet Wash Laundry in 1904, operating out of a building on the back of his house lot at 1044 S. Topeka Avenue that faced onto East Morris Street.

| 635 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Jeanette Mae Winders «/u»«/b», born 1 Mar 1912 in Mason City, Iowa and married Maxwell B. Hight (1912-1995) in Mason City in June 1937. They moved to Minnesota before WW II, where Max worked as a bond revenuer for a trust company and later for the Mayo Clinic. They had two daughters. | WINDERS, Jeanette Mae (I23757)

| 636 | According to John H WInder: «u»«b»Jessie M. Winders «/u»«/b» (1888-1957) was born on 24 September 1888 in Sycamore, Illinois and grew up there, then married «u»Harry F. Tice «/u» (1886-unk), sometime prior to 1930, in Sonoma County, California on 21 April 1908. She and Harry had one daughter, Margaret Tice (1909-1988), who married Carl Ingvar Philip Carlson (1906-1984). Jessie died in Orange County, California on 11 May 1957. | WINDERS, Jessica Marie (I25358)

| 637 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»John M. Winder «/u»«/b» (1825-1864) was the fifth Washington county Winders to move to Ogle County, Illinois. His exact connection to the rest of the Washington county Winders clan remains unclear. He married a Washington county girl, «u»Elizabeth J. Knodle «/u» (or Ann Elizabeth Knodle) (1832-1920) in Ogle County on 15 Aug 1854, making the time frame for his move west approximately coincidental with that of John N. and Hiram Winders. A John M. Winders is documented as one of the charter founding members of the I.O.O.F. chapter in Waynesboro, PA (just across the border from Washington County) on 1 Jan 1850, but it has not been established that this is the same John M. Winder who then moved to Ogle County and married Elizabeth Knodle. He is enumerated in the 1860 census as "John A. Winders", working as a marble cutter in Whitewater Township, Dubuque County, Iowa (with wife Elizabeth A. and children Catherine and Bayard Taylor, age 4 and 2 respectively. Since Bayard was born in Iowa, evidently the family had been there since at least 1858. In any case, the John M. Winder under discussion here died in 1864 at the early age of 39 in Mount Morris, Ogle County, Illinois, leaving his widow Elizabeth with four young children. | WINDERS, John M (I21522)
|
| 638 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»John Melvin Winders «/u»«/b» was born in Ogle County, Illinois in November 1862 and grew up there, marrying «u»Mary Ann Allen «/u» (1857-1916), who had been married previously to John Morrison, on 9 November 1894 in Marion (Linn County), Iowa. John Winders ran a boarding house as early as 1898 in Oelwein, Iowa. In the 1900 census he was enumerated as a "landlord", and the 22 June 1898 edition of the «i»Oelwein Register«/i» carried a hair-raising story about an attempted murder-suicide that took place "at the residence of J.M. Winders, in South Frederick Street", involving a couple who were boarding there. John Melvin does not appear in the 1910 census, although his wife and two children do, living with her mother in Zearing, Iowa; his wife Mary Ann described herself as widowed, which would be a good reason for John M. not to have been enumerated. However, there is a John Melvin Winder (with a November 1862 birth date) buried in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, together with wife Anna (18 Jan 1869-28 Jan 1927). So either this is a different John Melvin Winders, or he and Mary Ann Allen split up and Mary Ann said she was widowed rather than divorced when the census taker asked in 1910. Likely the Pawhuska John Melvin Winders and the Oelwein John Melvin Winders are one and the same-this is the assumption that this narrative works under, meaning that John Melvin Winders married (first) Mary Ann Allen (as noted above), then married (second) Anna (LNU), who ended up with him in Pawhuska and lived from 18 January 1869 to 28 January 1927. John and Mary Ann had two children: Carl Elmer and Eva M. Winders, and John and Anna had one son, Hiram Abiff Winders. | WINDERS, John Melvin (I22027)

| 639 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Kenneth B. Winders «/u»«/b» b. 4 Jun 1905 in Mason City, married Leta (maiden name unknown), worked for the Missouri Pacific Railroad as a materials clerk in North Little Rock, Arkansas, died 20 December 1964, and is buried in Elmwood Cemetery in Mason City. He had no children. | WINDERS, Kenneth B (I27249)
|
| 640 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Leta Pearl Winders «/u»«/b» was born 30 March 1901 in Tama County, Iowa, grew up there and married «u»Herman R. Freet «/u» , who ran an insurance and real estate agency in Marshalltown, Iowa. Herman had a son by his first marriage, but Leta and Herman apparently had no children of their own. Leta died 24 December 1966; Herman died 20 October 1982, and they are buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Toledo, Tama County, Iowa. | WINDERS, Leta Pearl (I25274)

The couple later moved to the west coast (she was living in Gardenia, California when her father died in 1961), and Lillie died on 12 Jun 2005 (Oregon Death Index says she died in Multnomah County, Oregon; SSDI lists Lillie Morton, with same date of death, SSAN obtained in Iowa prior to 1951, as having died in Missouri City, Texas, a suburb of Houston). No records exist of any children from this marriage. | WINDERS, Lillie Pearl (I20435)

| 642 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Lois Bernice "Billy" Winders «/u»«/b» was born on 7 April 1915 (15 years after her sister Lucy) in Le Mars, Iowa and grew up in Plymouth County and some time prior to 1940, married «u»John D. Pauley «/u» (1912-1991), a native of Sioux City, Iowa. She worked as a stenographer and he was an insurance salesman; shortly after WW II they moved to California and lived in Arcadia (Los Angeles County). Her husband died on 11 May 1991 and she died on 4 February 2002. There are no records of any children. | WINDERS, Lois Bernice (I25308)

Winders «/u»«/b» (1920- ), born about 1920 in Wichita, served in the Army during WW II, married «u»Rebecca Darrow «/u» (1920-2013), and worked as a press operator at McCormick-Anderson. As of late 2013, Loren was still living in the Winders Historic District. | WINDERS, Loren Harry (I25285)

| 644 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Lucy E.Winders «/u»«/b» was born in Iowa on 19 Jun 1900 (1901 according to the California Deaths Index; 1900 according to SSDI and her tombstone) and raised in Plymouth County. Sometime between 1920 (residence: LeMars, Iowa, marital status: single) and 1930 (residence: Los Angeles, California, marital status: married) she met and married Paul Clement Wilson, Sr. (1903-1985) and they moved to Los Angeles, where he served as an LAPD police officer until he retired. They eventually ended up in Orange County, where Lucy died on 12 March 1982, and Paul died in October, 1985. They are both buried in Ascension Cemetery, Lake Forest, California (Orange County). They had two children. | WINDERS, Lucy E (I25312)
|
| 645 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Lucy J. Winders «/u»«/b» was Hiram Winders' oldest daughter, born in Ogle County, Illinois on 9 December 1863. The family moved to Tama County, Iowa when Lucy was about 5 years old (1868), and she married the brother of her big brother Charles' wife, «u»Leonard Grau «/u», Jr. on Christmas Day, 1884. She died 5 years later on 14 March 1889 in Ireton (Sioux County), Iowa and is buried there in Pleasant Hill Cemetery. She and Leonard had two children: Clarence Grau (b. 11 Oct 1885, married Matilda A. Voss (1887-1961), ran a farm implements dealership in LeMars, Iowa, died 1 Nov 1972, no children); and Grace Grau (b. in February 1889; her mother died shortly thereafter, and her father re-married, "adopting her out" to a family named Post, according to information on findagrave.org, she died 21 Dec 1982 in Pasadena.) | WINDERS, Lucy J.

| 646 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Marshall Carl Winders «/u»«/b» was born in Des Moines, Iowa on 17 April 1924; he married «u»Helen B. Robbins «/u» (1925-2008) on 30 November 1942. They lived in Des Moines until around 1960, when Marshall's employer, construction contractor Fane F. Vawter Co, moved him to Iowa City and placed him in charge of the construction of new buildings on the University of Iowa campus. Marshall died in Des Moines on 5 January 1991; Helen died in Ankeny, Iowa (just north of Des Moines) in February 2008. Another family tree on Ancestry indicates that they had one child, but no further information is available. | WINDERS, Marshall Carl (I23638)
|
| 647 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Mary Alice Winders «/u»«/b» (1860-1936) was born on 12 March 1860 in Clark County, Ohio (like her older brother Harry Winders) but raised in Polo, Illinois and Wichita, Kansas. She married Clark Kinkaid in Sedgwick County (Wichita), Kansas on 15 Jan 1879 (Book A, page 391 of Sedwick County marriage records) and lived the rest of her life on the family farm in Gypsum Township, Sedwick County (just southeast of Wichita). She died 20 March 1936. The couple had three children: Mary A. Kinkaid (1881-unk), Roy C. Kinkaid (1883-1973) and Lee E. Kinkaid (1885-1946). | WINDERS, Mary Alice (I25254)

| 648 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Merle D. Miller «/u»«/b», born 17 May 1918 in Montour (Tama County), Iowa, attended the University of Iowa and the London School of Economics and worked as a Washington correspondent for the Philadelphia Record newspaper. During WW II he served as a war correspondent and editor for Yank Magazine. After the war he was an editor at both Harper's and Time Magazine, and reviewed books for the Saturday Review of Literature. He wrote several novels and works of non-fiction, including a best-selling biography of Harry S. Truman "Plain Speaking". He was black-listed during the McCarthy era. He died in Danbury, Connecticut on 10 June 1986. | MILLER, Merle D (I27234)
|
| 649 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Mildred Ruth Winders «/u»«/b» (1914-unk) was also born (6 Oct 1914) and raised in Maywood, and was a member of the Proviso Township High School class of 1932. Other than that, we know little of her life-a Mildred Ruth Winders died in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 23 Feb 1995, and if that is the correct Mildred R. Winders, then she never married, but moved to Milwaukee for some reason during her life. In addition to that record, «u»FamilySearch «/u» shows two «i»Maywood«/i» (Illinois) «i»Herald«/i» newspaper obituary index cards for Mildred Winders, one in 1932 and one in 1947. | WINDERS, Mildred Ruth (I26254)
|
| 650 | According to John H Winder: «u»«b»Nancy Winders «/u»«/b» (1834-unk), lived most of her life in Washington County and married twice there: first (date unknown) to «u»Elias D. Funk «/u» (1836-1860) with whom she had two children, «u»Lewis H. «/u» (1858-1947) and «u»Elias D. «/u» (1860, died in infancy); secondly, on 8 Nov 1869, to «u»Samuel C. Kinsey «/u» (1844-1911). As late as the 1880 census, Nancy and her second husband Samuel Kinsey were enumerated in Beaver Creek, Washington County, Maryland, but in 1900 they were living in Mount Morris, Ogle County, Illinois. Most likely they were there somewhat earlier than that, since Nancy's son by her first marriage, Lewis, married «u»Adeline Amick «/u» in Mount Morris, Illinois on 25 Feb 1886. Nancy had two more children by her second husband, Samuel C. Kinsey: Nettie M. Kinsey and Thomas Benton Kinsey (1874-1947), who married Cecelia E. Baker in Chicago 28 Jul 1902 and lived his entire life in Chicago. | WINDERS, Nancy (I25379)
