Notes - If you are researching this Winder line you might be interested in the
following:
In the 1930's one project of the WPA was to interview people who were
pioneers of their state. On 5 Nov 1937 William Hugh Winder was interviewed at his home in Hulbert Oklahoma. He was 80 years old. The interview is
fifteen pages long and is archived in the University of Oklahoma's western
history collections, Pioneer Papers, Volume 99. I obtained a copy from the
LDS collection through a local Family History Center, microfiche 6016964.
William states:
Born 22 Oct 1857 in Montgomery county Missouri near Wellsville
Father Swinnie Turner Winder born Bowling Green Kentucky
Mother Elizabeth Jane Clampet born Alabama and died Tahlequah Oklahoma
around 1912 at the age of 75y1m
Father served in the Civil War 3y and 6m and was injured at Moore's Mill but
never was paid a pension
The interview focuses on William and his wife's move from Missouri to the
Tahlequah area of Oklahoma in 1884. There are no further genealogical
statistics except the mention of a cousin "Stone". However, it is a
wonderfully interesting account of a young couple venturing through the
winderness by themselves and the town of Tahlequah in the year 1884.
