753 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Sarah Winder, birth date unknown, who married Robert Whitacre in April 1761 and subsequently is supposed to have removed to Catawissa, PA, near Bloomsburg in present Columbia County, PA. On 28 Aug 1990 a search was made for records concerning Robert and Sarah Whitacre in the deed, will, miscellaneous, and mortgage indices for both Northumberland and Columbia Counties in Pennsylvania, with no positive findings. The indices of Northumberland County list a David Feaster as buying land from Alexander Miller, and also show Jacob and Joseph Linton as purchasers of two lots on the north side of the public square in Sunbury in 1799 and 1801. There are no other listings of sales of these lands or estate records for identification of family members of the David Feaster and the Lintons listed in these indices. 
WINDER, Sarah (I277)
 
754 according to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Sarah Winder, born 7 February 1810, married Charles Shreve, who was born in Bloomfield Township, Crawford County, PA on 2 November 1804 and died there 31 March 1874. Charles Shreve was a son of Richard Shreve (born 1760), who came to Bloomfield Township in 1798 from the Redstone Settlement, where for eight years he had been in charge of the Washington mills built by George Washington. The known children of Charles and Sarah Winder Shreve, all born in Bloomfield Township, Crawford County, PA, were:

WINDER, Sarah (I1409)
 
755 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Sarah Winder, born about 1768 in Bucks County, Pa., was married to Benjamin Kerns, perhaps in Chester County, Pa. No record of this marriage has been found. It is known that Sarah and Benjamin Kern were members of the Quaker settlement at High Bank in 1797, and that Benjamin was still in Ross County in 1818. No children of Benjamin and Sarah Winder Kerns are known.. 
WINDER, Sarah (I227)
 
756 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Susan Winder, born 6 October 1850, who married Truman Warren Jenney on 25 November 1873 in Huron County, Ohio. Susan, according to her obituary in the Oberlin Alumni Magazine of March 1936, died 22 February 1936 at the home of her daughter, Florence Jenney Hall, in Oberlin, Ohio. Susan spent her childhood in Richmond, Indiana, and later was a student at Earlham College in that city. She taught for a few years before her marriage. Truman and Susan Winder Jenney made their first home in Greenwich, Ohio. They moved to Oberlin, Ohio in 1894, and their four children were all students at Oberlin College. In later years they lived for several years in Fairhope, Alabama, and still later in Burbank, California. Mr. Jenney died in Burbank in 1924, and soon after that Mrs. Jenney returned to Oberlin, where she made her home with her daughter, Florence Jenney Hall. 
WINDER, Susan B. (I332)
 
757 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Susannah Winder, born 4 February 1822, who married Madison Alderman 24 August 1838. Madison was born 26 August 1813 in Ohio. They moved to Wisconsin prior to 1848. The 1870 census for Haney, Crawford County, Wisconsin lists their
family as follows:
Madison Alderman, 54, MW, farmer, born Ohio
Susannah Alderman, 48, FW, "HK" (housekeeper), born PA
Bidwell J. Alderman, 22 MW, farming, born Wisc
Angelina Alderman, 24, FW, teaching school, born Wisc
Clinton B. Alderman, 17, MW, farming, born Wisc
Anson W. Alderman, 11, MW, born Wisc
George M. Alderman, 6, MW, born Wisc
Stubbs' Genealogy of the Kirk Family indicates that two older children were also born to Madison and Susannah Winder Alderman:
Laura Ann, born 14 March 1840, died 30 June 1843
Zelpha L. Alderman, born 18 October 1843, married John R. Shaw on 1 March 1861. 
WINDER, Susannah (I6007)
 
758 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
The only child of James and Elizabeth Grable Winder who appears to have remained in Fayette County was their daughter Sarah, who married Elihu White sometime before 1829, and whose two children, James N. White and Elizabeth White, are specifically mentioned in James Winder's will. An Elihu White is listed as head of household in the 1820 census of Redstone Township, Fayette County, with the household shown as consisting of one male between 26 and 44 years of age, one female between 10 and 16 years old, and one female between 26 and 44 years of age. Deed Book F of Harrison County, Ohio, records a deed of 10 September 1832 for the sale of "the west half of the NW ¼ of Section 28 in Township 11, Range 7" to John Drydon of Harrison County, Ohio by Elihu White and his wife, Sarah White, who are recorded as "of Redstone Township, County of Fayette, and state of Pennsylvania". This deed states that the land was patented by Elihu White 10 December 1827. Elihu White was also a witness of the deed by Nimrod Grable selling the land owned by the estate of James Winder in Redstone Township, mentioned above. At this point, however, no further information on Elihu White and his wife Sarah Winder White, has been found. Sarah's birth and death dates are unknown. 
WINDER, Sarah (I1085)
 
759 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Warren Winder – Warren Winder was born about 1830 in Pennsylvania, according to the 1860 census for Hardin County, Ohio, for the town of Mt. Victory, OH. He is listed in that census with his family, as household number 888/862, as follows:
Warren Winder 30 MW Chairmaker $600 R. E. Born PA
Emily Winder 27 FW Born Ohio
Alfred H. Winder 4 MW Born Ohio
Obadiah Winder 5/12 MW Born Ohio

The marriage of Warren Winders to Emily A. Dille on 20 March 1853 is recorded in the Hardin County (Ohio) Marriage Records at page 59 of Volume 2. Emily A. Dille was listed in the 1850 census in the household of her father, Abraham Dille, as 16 years of age. In the Pioneer Cemetery in Mt. Victory were found grave markers for three children of Warren and Emily Dille Winder:
Alfred H., son of W & E Winders, d. Aug 28, 1877, aged 21 Y 11 M 16 D
Deborah, dau. of W & E Winder, d. Mar 19, 1858, aged 6 Mo 15 D
Obadiah W., son of W & E Winder, d. Sept. 7, 1860, aged 8 Mos
No grave markers were found in this cemetery for either Warren Winder or his wife, Emily. Deed records for Hardin County show that Warren Winder bought a lot in Mt. Victory in 1856 from Asher Dille, his borther-in-law, and in 1860 he bought an adjoining lot from Thomas Jones. It is not known if Warren carried on his chairmaking trade at his residence or in a shop building at another location. In 1867, "W. Winder, by administrator," sold these lots and other town lots (Lots 84-89), and the sale is recorded in Volume 28, at pages 518 and 519, of the Hardin County Deed Records. As there is no evidence from marriage records that Alfred H. Winder, Warren and Emily's only child to reach maturity, was ever married, there are apparently no further descendants of Warren and Emily. The Mt. Victory census for 1870 lists Emily A. Winders and Alfred Winders in the household of Abraham Dille, family number 88. The Abraham Dille household in the 1880 census, Family #42 in Mt. Victory, includes Emily Dille, age 46, and describes her as the widowed daughter of Abraham Dille. It is not known when Warren Winder came to Mt. Victory, Ohio, but it is assumed that he probably came in the early 1850's, when his brothers James and Elihu also came to Hardin County. 
WINDER, Warren (I15483)
 
760 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
William Henry Winder, born 24 January 1837, who was a farmer in Wayne Township, Champaign County, Ohio, and who married on 1 January 1868 Martha Seaman, daughter of Lewis and Lavinia Seaman. William and Martha are known to have had one child, Florence L. Winder, probably born 5 January 1873. William was a member of the Friends' Society, while his wife was a Methodist. 
WINDER, William Henry (I168)
 
761 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
William Winder, born 2 February 1808, married Sybil Harrison, both apparently deceased before 1872. Their only known child, Thomas Harrison Winder, married Hannah Shreve, his first cousin (see below). Thomas and Hannah moved to Salt Lake City in 1859, and Hannah Shreve Winder died 23 January 1860 at St. George, Washington County, Utah. 
WINDER, William (I1405)
 
762 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000): Elizabeth Winder Bond, married to John Bond by 1785, and who was also living in 1804, as she was joined in the chancery suit concerning title to her father's real estate. WINDER, Elizabeth (I653)
 
763 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000): George Winder, known only by his mention in the wills of his father and of his brother Daniel.. WINDER, George (I639)
 
764 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):«tab»Thomas Winder, birthdate probably about 1745, who moved to Shenandoah County, VA. prior to the initiation of the Chancery suit of March term, 1804. Apparently Thomas remained in Shenandoah County. He is probably the Thomas Winder cited as bondsman for several marriages of female Winders in the Shenandoah County records, probably his daughters. No information is available to identify his wife. The Shenandoah County General Index to Wills lists Thomas Winder, dec'd 1807. His estate was inventoried on 22 February 1810, and the estate sale was held on 24 February 1810. Marriage records of Shenandoah County list the following Winder marriages:
John Spoon & Mary Winders, Aug 4, 1802, dr.[daughter] of Thos. Sr.
Christian Limbach & Jane Winder, Nov. 10 1800, bondsman Thos. Winders
Geo. Levesge & Nancy Winders, Dec. 17 1804, dr. of Thomas
John Comer & Tena Winders, May 2 1808, dr. of Thomas
Clement Winder & Magdalene Pixler May 27 1814
Henry S. Winder & Ann Amelia Ott Apr 20 1826

Hi Ann,
[snip]
We do have the line going all the way back to London, England in the early 1700's but for now, I'll start with my 4th great-grandfather, Thomas Winder and his family. Thomas was born in Maryland and moved to Shenandoah Co., Virginia around 1794-5. Through property tax records and personal property tax records for that time period, he was the only Winder listed in Shenandoah Co. Later, several of his sons started showing up on the tax records between 1815 and 1830 and they were Thomas (Jr.), Clement, William and Henry. Thomas was only around for a few years and then left the county, Clement showed up in 1815 and dropped off around 1827. William showed up for a few years in the very early 1820's. Henry showed up on the tax rolls shortly after his marriage in 1826 and was there until the records stopped in 1830. Thomas Sr. died in the latter part of 1807 or first part of 1808. His estate was probated in 1810. He left no Will.

4th great-grandfather: Thomas Winder, born about 1744 in Maryland
Wife: Unknown, Marriage date: Unknown
Children:
James Winder
William Winder
Thomas Winder, married Susannah Evans, October 20, 1800 - Shenandoah Co.
Mary Winder, married John Spoon, August 4, 1802 - Shenandoah Co.
Nancy Winder, married George Levesge, December 17, 1804 - Shenandoah Co.
Tena Winder, married John Comer, May 2, 1808 - Shenandoah Co.
Jane Winder, married Christian Limback, November 10, 1800 - Shenandoah Co.
Clement Winder, married Molly Bixler, May 27, 1814 - Shenandoah Co.
Henry S. Winder, married Ann Amelia Ott, April 20, 1826 - Shenandoah Co.

3rd great-grandfather: Clement Winders, born about 1790-91. (Note: We have searched for years and have not found out when or where he died. The last known record of him was in 1859 in Burlington, Iowa. He was listed in a directory as though he was living there. He disappeared after that.)
Wife: Molly Bixler, born 1798 in Virginia, died 1864 in Columbus, Ohio,
daughter of Michael Bixler and Anna Heistant.
She is buried in Greenlawn Cemetery in Columbus. I have a copy
of her Interment record which lists Michael and Anna Bickler as her
parents.
Children:
Elizabeth Winders, b. abt 1815, married M. Jacob Strickler
(Male) Winders, b. abt 1816
(Male) Winders, b. abt 1819
John Winders, b. Aug. 23, 1821, d. Oct 30, 1909, married Alvina Watson in
1843.
Julia Ann Winders, b. 1823, married Owen Huff - Columbus, Ohio
Lucinda Winders, b. abt 1825, married Chauncy White - Columbus, Ohio
Michael Winders, b. 1827, married (1) Mary Frize (2) Eliza Hartrum - Col. OH
Andrew Jackson Winders, b March 4, 1839, d. Nov. 27, 1904
(Male) Winders, born between 1835-1840
Jane (?) Winders, born between 1835-1840 (We are not positive about her
name.)

John was my 2nd great-grandfather. He married Alvina Watson in Columbus, Ohio
in 1843 and in 1855 moved to Burlington, Des Moines Co., Iowa with his younger
brother, Andrew. They were both brick masons.

Getting back to Clement ---- I first found him in the 1820 census for Shenandoah Co., Virginia. When he didn't show up in that state in 1830, I started looking in other states until I found him in Fairfield Co., Ohio. Once I knew he was there, I looked at the tax records for Fairfield County and found he started paying a personal property tax about 1828. He was living in Bloom Township at the time and continued living there for several years. He disappeared for several years in the late 1830's but was found in the 1840 census for Columbus, Ohio (Franklin Co.) His son John (my 2nd gr-gf) bought several pieces of property in Columbus and Clement was found living in one of the houses around 1855-58. He dropped off the directory in Columbus and showed up in a directory in Burlington, Iowa where John, Andrew and his oldest daughter, Elizabeth Strickler) were living. The year for the directory was 1858.
Another bit of information... In 1826, a William Winders died in Fairfield
Co., Ohio. We believe this may have been Thomas' son William that I found in
the tax records in the early 1820's in Shenandoah Co. When William's estate
was probated, several notes were called in. One of them was for Clement
Winders. He had borrowed $5 from William.

How did I find out about Clement's children? The answer to that covers many, many years of researching records and trying to piece things together. We used census records, marriage records, land records and directories to put the family together. About six-seven years ago I connected with a descendant of Andrew Jackson Winders who was the younger brother of my John Winders (2nd g- gf). They were able to confirm that Clement was the father through personal records. They even had a picture of Clement!

What documentation did I find to place Clement in Ohio? Once I found Clement
in the 1830 census for Ohio and found him living in Fairfield Co., it was
rather easy from there. I pulled the tax records for the county to determine
when he arrived and when he left. The next county west is Franklin Co. I
started going through land records, marriage records, census records, etc. He
moved around a lot but the family seemed to stay put, mostly in the City of
Columbus.

765 According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2005):
In 1870 Harman was living with Charles H. Delaney and his wife Mary
[presumably nee Mary Ann Winder, daughter of Harman] in Philadelphia, PA,
Ward 20, District 64. Charles H Delaney was a flour and Feed dealer
[probably the Chas Delaney listed as a resident of the hotel run by Harman
Winder in 1860 in Philadelphia, occupation clerk, age 23] Charles and Mary
Delaney had two children listed, Anna V., aged 5 years, and Ella W. Delaney,
aged 3 years. Harman Winder was listed as 65 years of age, "at home". 
WINDER, Harman (I271)
 
766 According to Robert L. Winder:
Rather curiously, considering his record as a firm Friend, this John Winder (1736-1819 son of John, son of Thomas) is to be found on the D.A.R. rolls as a Patriot in the Revolutionary Army. A descendant, when queried by the compiler about this claim of Revolutionary Service for John Winder, stated that it was based on the publication, in the Pennsylvania Archives, of the record of a John Winder having served as a private, enlisting in York County, PA. The Pennsylvania Archives record was then checked. A John Winder did indeed serve as private in the "German Company" from York County, PA. The record further shows, however, that this John Winder, from York County, had died by the time "depreciation payments" were allowed in the 1780's, and that his widow, named Anne, still lived in York County at the time. As we know that "our" John Winder lived in Bucks County until 1783....

John Winder enlisted as a private in the German Company from York County. Apparently he died in that conflict, and his widow, Anne, applied for "depreciation payments". She was living in York County in the 1780's when the depreciation payment law took effect.

Hi Ann,
I could not find any mention of your James[my mistake--AW] Winder in any of my York County sources. I thought surely he would be mentioned in The History of York County, Pa. 1886 by John Gibson, but he was not. I also checked The Will Index of York County, 1749-1800 and The Index to Probate Inventories of York County, Pa. 1749-1850 but there were no Winders listed. Also checked Marriages and Deaths from the York Recorder 1821-1830. I'm really sorry I wasn't able to help. Donna

My gggrandmother was Eliza Vough Grange, born near Montoursville, PA, in 1833, a daughter of Hannah Winder Vough. (Montoursville is now in, I believe, Sullivan County but was Lycoming County at some point in history.) Her obituary states "Two great grandfathers, David Hamilton and John Winders were soldiers in the Revolutionary War. Hamilton belonged to a company entitled "Rangers on the Frontiers" 1778 to 1783."

I noticed that under your Stray Winders of Pennsylvania, York County there's a James Winder. I think this guy is actually "John" Winder. My Winder family folklore refers to a John Winder of York County who served in the German Regiment in the Revolutionary War. This John Winder had a son Warren (who is mentioned in your Stray Winders of Lycoming Co. PA). Warren Winder's line is the line from which I descend.

WINDER, John (I11029)
 
767 According to Robert L. Winder: (3) John Winder, who was named in his father's will, in his brother Daniel's will, and was a party to the chancery suit of 1804 to settle title to his father' s estate. From Chester L. /Shaver's History of the Shaver Family in Washington County, Maryland and Somerset County, Pa/. it appears that this John Winder is most likely to be the John Winder who married Elizabeth Earhart Shaver, widow of Peter Shaver. John and Elizabeth were married 18 August 1795 in the German Reformed Church in Hagerstown, Md. (known as Elizabethtown at that time). This marriage was also John Winder's second marriage; his first wife is known only as Ann. John's will, written and probated in Somerset County, Pa. in November 1806, mentions three children from his first marriage - John, who was living in Washington County, Md. in 1807; Rachel, who was married to John Neal; Martha, whose married name was Gower. John Winder's will also named five children born to his second marriage as Samuel, Elizabeth, Peter, Daniel, and Earhart Winder. A sixth child of this second marriage, John Winder, was named by the executor of the estate in a petition to sell the tavern to meet the debts. Dr. Shaver was inclined to believe that son Samuel was the Samuel Winder who married Susan Newcomer in Washington County, Maryland on 9 Jun 1823 and apparently lived his entire life in or near Clear Spring, Md. Martha is evidently the "Matty" Winder recorded as having married Adam Gower in Washington County, Md. on 16 Jun 1886. WINDER, John (I435)
 
768 According to Robert L. Winder: The will of John Taylor, Sr. in Licking County, Ohio, named LUCY WINDERS as a daughter of John Taylor, Sr. The will was written 17 March 1824 and proved Nov. 1824 in Coshocton County, Ohio. TAYLOR, John (I8552)
 
769 According to Ronald Winder (May 2013) She was born and died in Humboldt, Kansas, and she is buried there. I am fairly certain she was married there as well, but I need to confirm that. They lived most of their married life in Buffalo, Kansas, and later Parker, Kansas. After my grandfather died in 1962, she moved back to Humboldt and lived there until her death in 1968. Her parents are in the same cemetery, as are a lot of my relatives. MICHAEL, Anna Dora (I25125)
 
770 According to Sharon Aasheim (Sep 2000):
Treassa Harman Allen was buried in the Bladensburg Cemetery. She died at the home of her daughter Sarah Allen Bedwell, wife of George Bedwell. Tressa was born in Ohio and moved to Iowa with her parents when she was about 4 years old.

Ottumwa Daily, Oct 12, 1916 (transcribed by Sharon):
SOUTH OTTUMWA WOMAN NEARING 80TH BIRTHDAY
In the autumn of the year 1842 tiny Treassa Harmon in company with her parents, George and Juda Harmon and her brothers and sister, journey from -------- County, Illinois, where she was born October 1, 1837, to Jefferson County, Iowa. Here the family wintered and the following spring continued their trip to Wapello county arriving here the second day of May, or the day following that date upon which the indians gave up their possession of this territory. The father took up a homestead some some ten miles northeast of Ottumwa, in what is now Pleasant Township. A clearing was made in the timber and here the home of the Harmon family was built one roomed house of hewn logs with a roof of linn bark. The furnishings were few, but the Harmon children, nevertheless, enjoyed their sleep and dreams on a prairie hay bed, the fram of which was made of post fastened to the walls. The mother cooked the family meals, which consisted of cornbread and other corn meal "delicacies", wild deer, and turkey and wild fruits, using a "reflector" to bake and an open fire by a big stump for her stove during the first summer. The cornmeal, "the pioneer's staff of life", was prepared for use at Bonaparte, a distance which could be covered in two weeks.
In this home, surrounded by a wonderful woodland where Indians still built their wigwams, little Treassa grew to womanhood, and in June 1853 was united in marriage to J.M.J. Allen, a native in Indiana, who early sought the possibilities of this section. They made their home for sixty years on a 20 acre tract of land near the Harmon homestead. A small log cabin was the "cozy cottage" for this happy couple who went to housekeeping with two homemade beds, a cook stove, a home made table, six chairs, three knives and forks, three cups and saucers and six plates.
Mr. and Mrs. Allen were the parents of nine sons and daughters. Those living are Mrs. George Bedwell of Blakesburg, Andrew Allen of this city, and Victoria at home with the mother. Mr. Allen passed away in October, 1913, and in the latter part of October 1915, Mrs. Allen came to the city and located with her daughter at 557 South Moore Street.
Mrs. Allen's fifteen grandchildren and thirteen great grandchildren are very fond of their grandmother and look forward to next autumn when, together with her children and hosts of friends, they can greet her on her eightieth birthday.

Obituary (photocopied by Sharon, no source given):
IN MEMORIAM / Tressa Harmon Allen
Tressa Harmon Allen, the daughter of George and Juda Harmon was born October 1, 1837 in the state of Ohio and passed from this life December -- 1919 at the home of her daughter Mrs. George Bedwell, 557 South Moore Street, Ottumwa. She came with her parents to Iowa when she was about four years old. She was married to G.M.J. Allen June 2, 1853. Her husband departed this life five years ago. To them were born nine children, six of whom preceded the parents in death. Those left to mourn her death are Victoria, Mrs. George Bedwell and Andrew all of Ottumwa, two sisters, thirteen grandchildren and nineteen great grandchildren. She was in poor health for more than three years but was uncomplaining and patient. Her last words wer "God have mercy on me. Thy will be done." She was a faithful Christian woman for more than thirty years.
A short service was held at the home of her daughter on Moore street, December 10 at 10 a.m. conducted by Rev. Karaker and Rev. R. W. Pettit. Following this short service her body was taken to Bladensburg by auto where a service was conducted by Rev. B. W. Pettit and Rev. Karaker.
Her body was lowered to its last resting place beside her husband.
Thus we are called upon to give up a splendid mother, neighbor and friend. Blessings upon her memory.

771 According to Sharon Martini:
I also have a William M. Winder(s) who married a Sarah Holdren on 2/17/1856, which is excerpted from a little publication called the Muncy Luminary. William was also one of John Winder, the elder's, sons and brother of John R. Winder. According to my records William was born 9/11/1834. According to a letter written by Harold Ottensman, William was the postmaster of a Jackson Twp (no county or years given). There are Jackson Twps in Columbia, Northumberland and Lycoming Counties that I know of. 
WINDERS, William Milnor (I16211)
 
772 According to Sharon Martini:
The 1880 census shows a William H. Winders (23) of Jordan Twp. Lycoming Co, PA, whose parents were born in NJ. He also has a wife Elizabeth (19) and a son, Charles E. (2). This William H. Winders age and residence proximity is consistent to have been the son of John R. Winders. 
WINDERS, William H. (I15024)
 
773 According to Sharon Martini:
The Wesley United Methodist Church Cemetery, Talmer, Pine or Jackson Twp., Columbia County, PA contained two other Winders. Kenneth W. Winders (1907-1986) and his wife Sarah (1920-1999), and J.

The Wesley United Methodist Church Cemetery, Talmer, Pine or Jackson Twp., Columbia County, PA contained two other Winders. Kenneth W. Winders (1907-1986) and his wife Sarah (1920-1999), and J. Albert (1880-1962) and his wife Margaret (1184-1974). These gentleman may have been son and father, respectively. They also may be related to the John R.

775 According to Stephen Winder (Jan 2006): Clerk, also vicar of Winkfield.

According to Robert L. Winder (Jan 2006): matriculated at Trinity College, Oxford on 18 Jan 1604, aged 17, BA Merton College 1908, MA St. Edwards College, 1611. This is from "Alum. [for Alumni, of course] Oxoniensis", a register of attendees at the various colleges of Oxford University. This reference lists other later Winders from Berkshire, most of whom belonged to this tribe.

777 According to Terry Harris:
Not known when Helen and Phillip divorced, but it would have been by 1940 or before, but after 1927 when they married. Helen was said to be Olive skin, dark hair and eyes. (Possible Native American blood? Spanish? Greek?)

Helen was living in Rosebud, Illinois at the time of her marriage to Phillip, with her daughter, Dimple. She was born Clithy Helen James. She was living in Seattle, Washington in 1940 where she applied for a S.S.# and gave her name as Helen Gladys McMillian. She had remarried to William J. McMillian, who was a prominent Dentist. Sharon Estrada tried to track more records on William, but the Dentistry Board said records were destroyed in a fire. It is not known why she used the name Helen Clyde James. She was listed as age 21, white at time of marriage to Phillip. Phillip was listed as age 27 and white. Phillips parents were both listed as deceased. Helen's father was listed as deceased, but her mother was listed as Sarah James. Witnesses were listed as Frank and Burt Jones.
Believed to have had other children besides Dimple, but unknown who and where they are.

All I know about Knapp is I found it on her death record. In fact I looked for her death record for 30 years, when I found it , It listed Gladys Helen Knapp died April 1st 1953 SanDiego Ca. BUT, It was amended above her name to say Gladys Helen McMillan, Don't have a clue. AS far as Jones, I saw it on one of her uncles wills , He left his state to all of his sisters brothers kids, She was listed as Helen Gladys Belcher - Jones - Winder- Mcmillam. This happened in Il Rosebud Ill.

778 According to Terry Harris: I did find in the 1900 Census for Wayne Co., Mo. Cedar Creek Township that Susan Winder is listed as mother-in-law and as a widow.Her birth date is given as Feb. 1829, age as 71, born in Tenn. Both parents born in Tn. So she did out live Moses Sylvester Winder. WALKER, Susan Jane (I17403)
 
779 According to the biography of Henry F. Winders, a son of John Winders and Elizabeth Paden (History of Hancock County, Ohio, by Robert C. Brown, Warner, Beers & Co., Chicago, Ill.), John Winders was "a native of Shenandoah County, Va., and of pioneer stock of that State." That John was a "native" of Shenandoah is possible, but unlikely. It is more likely that John was born in Maryland in 1793, but moved with his father, Thomas Winders, to Shenandoah County, VA, circa 1795-1796. Thomas Winders first began appearing in the Shenandoah County tax records in 1796; it is believed that he was the Thomas Winders in Washington County, Maryland, in the 1790 census, his last appearance in census records prior to his death in 1809 (no census for Shenandoah County exists for 1800). It is possible that Thomas had moved from Maryland to Shenandoah County, VA, as early as 1793. However, note that the 1850 census for John Winders indicates he was born in Maryland. This contradiction of Virginia verus Maryland was also found in the records of John's brother, Clement Winders.
We would expect John Winders to begin appearing in the Shenandoah County tax records in approximately 1814, when he turned 21. However, because he does not appear in the Shenandoah tax records, it is possible he had already ventured into Ohio along with other Shenandoah County men of the Winders family acquaintance, who were moving in large numbers into Ohio about that time. We have not made a search for John in Ohio tax records.
John Winders has not been located in the census records prior to his 1830 census appearance in Fairfield County, Ohio, where he married Elizabeth Paden in 1830, four years after serving as administrator of the Fairfield County, Ohio estate of his brother, William Winders. It is likely that John had been in the area of Fairfield County, in particular Richland Township, for a number of years prior to 1830 - according to the probate record of John's brother, William Winders, William was a supervisor of a portion of the Ohio Canal project (probably Licking Reservoir, now Buckeye Lake near Rushville) at the time of his death (probably accidental, as William was a young man at the time), and John completed the Canal reservoir project begun by William (as stated in the probate record). It seems likely that John had been working on the project in 1826 before William's death. John Winders and Elizabeth Paden were married by Rev. Henry Fernandes of Rushville Township (where William Winders was buried in 1826) and their son, Henry Fernandes Winders, was named for the Reverend, suggesting a close friendship that may have pre-dated 1830.
This John Winders has sometimes been mistaken as John Winders of Union, Ross County, Ohio (who was in Ross County in the 1830 census, while our John appears in Richland Township, Fairfield County, Ohio, in the 1830 census, after having married Elizabeth Paden there in May of that year). According to the research of Robert Winder (a descendant of James Winder, brother of John's father, Thomas), the Winders of Ross County were descendants of John Winder and Margaret Briggs of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, who were Quakers, settling in Ross County, Ohio, by 1798, based on Gershom Perdue's Memoranda of Early Settlement of Friends in the Northwest Territory. John and Margaret Briggs Winder had a son, James, married to Deborah Allen; James and Deborah had a son, John, who married Mary Crozier in Ross County, Ohio on March 24, 1821. Their last child was born in Ross County in 1832, so it is likely the John Winders married to Mary Crozier is the one appearing in the 1830 census for Ross County. He ultimately moved his family to Goshen, Indiana, where he appeared in the 1850 census. [Deven Lewis, 2011-deven00@charter.net]

WINDER, Claude Veyne Phd (I1)
 
783 According to Winders of America:
Deeds of lease and release from Thomas Winder, Sr., to John Winder, bearing date December 18 and 19, 1732, for the tract of three hundred and forty-one acres in Makefield township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, which the father had purchased in 1727 at sheriff's sale, made out in due form, but never signed, are still in existence. On this plantation John Winder probably settled at the time of his marriage, and here he continued to live until his death.

...Benjamin Palmer and John Winder made acknowledgment to the Meeting, Second month 6, 1760, for wrong-doing in "contributing towards the getting of carriages to go on the last expedition to the Westward." John Winder again offended in like manner, for Makefield Meeting reported, Fourth month 4, 1764, to the Monthly Meeting at Falls, that William Yeardley and John Winder "had been concerned in carrying soldiers and their effects."

According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
John Winder, born in 1707, settled on the land purchased by his father in Lower Makefield Township. Deeds from his father's other heirs conveyed their interest in this land to John over a period from 1736 to 1762, although the deeds were not recorded in Bucks County until 1791. His wife, Rebecca Richards, was born 19 Sep 1714, but the date of their marriage has not been found. The names of Rebecca's parents are unknown. Both John and Rebecca Winder requested membership in the Falls Meeting of the Friends Society, and were duly admitted, John on 1 May 1747 and Rebecca a month later. It appears that they spent their entire lives in Lower Makefield Township. In his will John Winder described himself as a "yeoman", and made bequests to his "Dear and well-beloved wife Rebeccah Winder", to his sons Thomas Winder, Aaron Winder, James Winder, Moses Winder, and John Winder, and to his daughters Elizabeth Linton, Sarah Whitacre, Hannah Brooks, Rebeccah Winder, Mercy Winder, and Ann Winder. His will was witnessed by Jane Slack (presumed to be his sister Jane), John Chapman, and Wm. Yeardley. The will named his wife, Rebecca Winder, and his son, John, as executors of his will. Rebecca Winder wrote her will 11 January 1788, leaving small bequests to Moses Winder, Hannah Brooks, John Winder, James Winder, Sarah Whitacre, Rebecca Nutt, Elizabeth Linton, and Ann Knight, with the remainder of her estate going to son Aaron Winder. From these two wills it appears that Elizabeth Winder Linton and Hannah Winder Brooks were married prior to 1770, that Rebecca Winder Nutt and Ann Winder Knight were married between 1770 and 1788, and that Mercy Winder died between 1770 and 1788. Fourteen children are known to have been born to John and Rebecca Richards Winder, but two died young, and Mercy Winder, the twelfth child, seems to have died unmarried prior to 1788.
...
John Winder (John 2, Thomas 1) lived in Bucks County, PA until the close of the Revolutionary War. He was married to Margaret Briggs on 23 January 1760 and was probably the "John Winder, married man" reported in 1775 as a "non-associator" in Bucks County, which meant that he did not support the Revolution. In 1783, John, Margaret and their children moved to Chester County, PA, as recorded in Quaker records. From there they moved, on certificate from Kennett Square Meeting, to the Redstone Settlement on the Mononghahela River in 1796. Their eldest children, James and Hannah, had preceded the rest of the family in the move to southwestern Pennsylvania. In 1797 John Winder, his wife Margaret, and their children, with the exception of James, again moved westward, going into the Northwest Territory to the vicinity of present-day Chillicothe, Ohio, in the Scioto Valley, as founding members of a new Quaker settlement.

Gershom Perdue's Memoranda of Early Settlements of Friends in the Northwest Territory states :
On the 8th day of Fifth Month… 1797, John Winder, Margaret his wife, and three single children (Abner, Mercy, and Elizabeth), and son James and his wife Deborah Winder, and sons-in -law, Isaac Warner and wife Mary, and their daughter Lydia, and William Chandler and his wife Hannah, and Levi Warner (afterwards son-in-law to John Winder) from Westland, PA, settled at High Bank, on the east side of the Scioto River, near the end of the railroad bridge, four miles below where Chillicothe now is… I will here, in order of time, say that John Warner, son of Isaac and Mary Warner, was born at High Bank, Ross County, Ohio, on the 12th day of Seventh Month, 1789. The first birth of a member of the Society of Friends northwest of the Ohio River, and that on the 11th of the Eleventh Month the same year, 1798, Rebecca Chandler, daughter of William and Hannah Chandler, was born at or near the same place, both grandchildren of John and Margaret Winder. I presume they are both living - the latter the wife of Alexander Bell of Iowa and an elder in the Church… About the year 1802, John Winder, with most of his children and their families, moved west of the Scioto and settled on Dry Run, some six miles above Chillicothe, where they, with some friendly neighbors (several of whom afterward joined in religious fellowship with Friends) opened a meeting for worship which in due time was noticed on record, and continued until 1828.

Rather curiously, considering his record as a firm Friend, this John Winder is to be found on the D. A. R. rolls as a Patriot in the Revolutionary Army. A descendant, when queried by the compiler about this claim of Revolutionary service for John Winder, stated that it was based on the publication, in the Pennsylvania Archives, of the record of a John Winder having served as a private, enlisting in York County, PA. The Pennsylvania Archives record was then checked. A John Winder did indeed serve as a private in the "German Company" from York County, PA. The record further shows, however, that this John Winder, from York County, had died by the time "depreciation payments" were allowed in the 1780's, and that his widow, named Anne, still lived in York County at that time. As we know that "our" John Winder lived in Bucks County until 1783, then moved from the Kennett Square Meeting in Chester County to the Redstone Meeting, there is no basis for his being considered as having served in the Revolutionary Army in a company that was recruited in York County, PA. Nor was his wife named Anne, as was the widow of the soldier from York County. This listing of John Winder (1736-1819) as a Revolutionary War "Patriot" seems to be simply a case of erroneous identification of an ancestor as one who served in the Revolutionary forces. It seems in any case, that John Winder and his wife Margaret must rank with the earliest settlers of the old Northwest Territory. Their party of Friends probably reached their original destination of High Bank, just south of Chillicothe, by rafting down the Mononghahela and Ohio Rivers to the mouth of the Scioto, and then proceeding overland up the Scioto valley. It should be noted that an 1880's History of Ross and Highland Counties (Ohio) states that the James Winder who supposedly was in the original party of Quaker settlers was the brother of John Winder. Actually, this James Winder was the son of John Winder, the Ohio Quaker Pioneer. As James Winder was married to Deborah Allen in March 1799 in Westlands Meeting, which was located in Pennsylvania, it seems questionable that James was actually a member of the original party of settlers in 1797.

John Winder (1736-1819), wrote his will 22 February 1819, to which the witnesses were William Warner, Benjamin Hough, and Samuel Ellis. A codicil, primarily concerning the disposal of personal property, was added to the will on 27 February, and this codicil was witnessed by Benjamin Hough, John Sturgeon, and Samuel Ellis. Letters testamentary on the estate of John Winder were issued 20 April 1819 to Levi Warner (son-in-law) and Abner Winder, son of the deceased. As John Winder's wife had preceded him in death, and as his children were grown to maturity, his will made bequests primarily to his grandchildren, with the exception of land left to his son Abner. There were eight known children who reached maturity born to John Winder and Margaret Briggs Winder, and there is some indication that a son, Edward, born ca. 1765, died prior to 1793. 
WINDER, John Iden (I13898)
 
784 According to Winders of America:
Rebecca Nutt in 1794 received a certificate to remove with her husband and four children to within the compass of Fairfax Monthly Meeting, Virginia.
The Fairfax Meeting records note the receipt of this certificate and also that neither she nor her children had attended their Meeting while living near it. 
WINDER, Rebecca (I291)
 
785 According to Winders of America:
The Duke of York, having levied upon the colonists for the space of three years certain duties on goods brought to this country, which levy had expired by limitation in November 1680, the merchants of the city of New York had then discharged their cargoes without giving any attention to the custom-house officers. The legality of the customs being thus denied, on May 31, 1681, suits were instigated against Colonel Dyer, who was collector of the port, mayor of the city, and a member of the council, accusing him of treason because of his collecting taxes without authority of the law. Samuel Winder, who brought suit, was evidently acting in the interest of his fellow citizens and supported by them. Dyer, who questioned the authority of the court here to try him, was shipped to England for trial, Winder entering into a recognizance of five thousand pounds to prosecute him. As Winder did not appear against him, although in England at or shortly before the time appointed for trying the case, Colonel Dyer was discharged. His opponents gained their point by gettng rid of him.
"This spirited measure," says Chalmers, "however irregular it may now appear, had the greatest effect in laying in ruins that system of despotism which had so long affected the people of New York." The resistance offered thus early by the merchants of New York to taxation without representation led to the introduction soon after of a representative form of government into the province.

786 According to Winders of America:
While Sarah, the only child of Isaiah and Catherine Vanhorn, was still an infant in the cradle, Aaron Winder had laughingly remarded that he intended to wait until she was old enough to marry him. After the father's death, Aaron Winder was appointed guardian in the child's twelfth year, and in time the marriage did take place.
This marriage not being accomplished in accordance with the order of the Society of Friends, of which he was a member, Aaron Winder was dealt with by the Meeting; and, having refused to express sorrow for what he had done, was disowned Twelfth month 11, 1812.

According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Winders of America tells the story that Aaron Winder's first love was Catherine Subers, who married Isaac Van Horn while Aaron was in school studying to become a medical doctor. Thereupon Aaron remained unmarried until 16 January 1812, when he married Sarah Van Horn, the daughter of Isaac and Catherine Subers Van Horn. Sarah Van Horn Winder was born 29 February 1796, and died 27 January 1838. After Aaron's death Sarah married Abner Morris on 24 Aug 1825 and had four children by this second marriage. Aaron purchased 200 acres of the Winder Makefield homestead in 1788 and maintained his residence there until his death. 
WINDER, Aaron (I306)
 
787 According to Winders of America:
With James Winder the Society of Friends had great trouble, beginning Third month 2, 1873, when it was reported to the meeting that he had bought or hired a negro slave. For a long time he refused to give satisfaction to those who were sent to reason with him on the subject, and it was not until Eighth month 3, 1763, that he was finally prevailed upon to make acknowledgment for his wrong-doing in this particular. The matter, however, was not forgotten,--for when he requested a certificate of removal to Buckingham Meeting on Eighth month 1, 1764, it was refused on account of his evasive conduct concerning the slave he had purchased and because of other irregularities, which resulted finally in his being disowned, Ninth month 4, 1765.

From Falls MM notes:
7/11/1764 Reported that James Winder is evasive and unclear as to the Negro he had purchased and he had been concerned in horse racing and at another time quarreling and fighting (disowned).
Letter to Falls MM from James: 3/8/1763: I some time past purchased a Negroe woman on condition that if Friends disapproved of my so doing, her former master should take her again; and on Friends treating with me, I returned the Negroe, but evaded the thing, not giving them a clear account of my contract. In all which I acknowledge my Fault and condemn the same. James Winder.

According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
James Winder, born 24 November 1735, died 21 January 1804, who married (1) Sarah Bailey, on 28 December 1763, and (2) Mary Booz. This James Winder may be the James Winder found on the tax list of Ridley Township, Chester County, PA in 1789 as taxable for 5 pounds, 15 shillings and 4 pence. There are no known children by the first marriage to Sarah Bailey. Mary Booz is known to have had two children by James Winder - Thomas Winder, born 12 November 1796, died 12 July 1836, and Ann Winder, born 27 Oct 1800, who married Isaac Wynkoop 16 Aug 1815 in Makefield, Bucks County, PA. Thomas married Susan Vansant (Vanzant) in July 1820. According to Winders of America, Thomas and Susan VanVansant Winder had five children. None of these children have been identified by the compiler. Ann Winder and Isaac Wynkoop had thirteen known children. Isaac was born 16 Feb 1791 and was living in Boone County, Indiana in 1854.

790 Adair County Free Press, 20 Apr 1922
Elizabeth Ellen Winder was born February 10, 1849, near Bladenburg, Wapello County, Iowa. When in her teens, she moved to Jefferson County, near Batavia, where she was married to David H. Garber in August, 1866. In 1877, they went to Ness County, Kansas, being among the early settlers of that country. Eleven years later, they moved to Aspen, Colorado, where the husband and two daughters passed away. In 1889, she went to Fort Collins, Colorado, where she resided a number of years, later living in Illinois, Washington and California. About six years ago she came to Grove Township, Adair County, where she made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Sarah E. Rigg. Here she passed away Friday, April 14th, at the age of 73 years, 2 months and 4 days.
She was the mother of ten children, four of whom, Eliza C., Eunice E., Ruthie I. and Wilbert O. preceded her to the other world. She leaves to mourn her loss six children, Mrs. Sarah E. Rigg of Greenfield, Iowa; Mrs. Ella Lamb of Fort Collins, Colo.; Mrs. Bessie E. Mason of Tacoma, Wash.; Levi W. of Bazine, Kansas, and Samuel of Tacoma, Wash.; two step children, Mrs. Anna M. Sellers of Horace, Kansas, and John D. of Plains, Mont.; two brothers; one sister; two step-sisters; seventeen grandchildren and five great grandchildren, besides many other relatives and friends.
She spent her long life in caring for her own family and in helping her neighbors and friends, working many times beyond her own strength to save others from care and suffering. She saved others, herself she could not save. She was a member of the Dunkard church in Jefferson county, and a faithful servant of God to the last, looking forward with faith in God, and anxious to put off her mortal chains of suffering for the peach and rest promised to His children. She was a loving and faithful wife, mother and friend, patient and uncomplaining through months of suffering. She has left vacant a place no one else can fill, though they may follow her in love, faith and good works, in the name of the One who came not to be ministered unto but to minister.
Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 at the Methodist church in Greenfield. Rev. W. H. Meredith conducted the services. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Interment was made in the Greenfield cemetery.

According to Melanie Smith (email, Dec 1998):
Elizabeth Ellen Winder and David Garber had a tough life. She lost three children and her husband all in one year. I believe she spent her last years living with her daughter Sade (Garber) Rigg although she did live in Ft. Collins for a while.

According to letter from Pat Vaughan (20 Jan 1999):
My cousin recently died and he told me that my Grandma once told him about her Dunkard baptism! That reminded me that she'd told me about nearly drowning in a river. The Winders were devout Dunkards.

According to Molly Davis (Feb 1999):
I have a bunch of family history notes that my grandmother (Alphronia Lamb Smith) put together over the years, and this material shows that Elizabeth Ellen Winder Garber married a D.H. Christensen 1891. Her notes also indicate "divorced" and "lived in Ft. Collins, Colo". If they were divorced, that could explain the lack of a mention of her second marriage in the obituary. I haven't found anything in Larimer County, Colorado records to provide any other evidence of this second marriage or divorce, so it is possible the marriage and/or divorce took place in Iowa?

According to Mary Launder (May 1993):
During WWI when womenfolk were knitting washcloths for the soldiers, she taught me to knit, to crochet, to patch and to darn.
Elizabeth Ellen said she spoke only German until she started school. When I knew her, her English was excellent and she was a well educated woman.
[Nov 1992]: Did I tell you that the records may show Grandma as Ellen? This is what she went by and in the 1890's her surname was Christensen for a while then she took back the Garber.

The GARBERS lived in Colorado and Iowa, having moved from Pennsylvania. Many of their children were born in Kansas. I believe there is a photograph of Eliza Harmon WINDER. Perhaps I could scan and e-mail it to you if interested. Will go through my WINDER notes to see if there is anything helpful as to your query.

Actually my source was my grandmother who told me about her side of the family, not sure where she got that info..but probably has been shared through generations of our family. All I know is that his wife was Eliza Harmon who lived from 1821-1889...not sure of their birth/death places. I know that on that side we are related to John Billington the famous Mayflower murderer, though I haven't gotten that far yet. Let me know if you have any information on that....Anyway..here is my lineage so far:

Eliza Harmon
2. David Garber

I'm not sure of all the details on the Mayflower murder...it is in a book though called The Mayflower Murderer and other Forgotten Firsts...can't remember who the author is. All I can remember is John Billington commited a murder soon after they landed and they hung him from his neck and his feet, in other words, streched his body out until he couldn't take it & died...what a way to die huh?
