- According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
Elizabeth Ann Winder, born 30 October 1806, probably in Fayette County, PA. From information received from David V. Addington of Plano, Texas, it appears possible that she is the Elizabeth Winder recorded in the IGI as having married Jesse Chalfant in Ross County, Ohio on 21 September 1826. According to Mr. Addington's data, Jesse Chalfant, Sr., father of the Jesse Chalfant who married Elizabeth Winder, resided in Goshen Township of Belmont County, Ohio in 1820. As Elizabeth's father sold the land he was known to own in Harrison County in 1829, and did not buy any other land in that county until 1839, his whereabouts between 1829 and 1839 are really in doubt. In 1829 a Mary Winder, presumably Elizabeth's mother, bought a lot in Freeport, Ohio, which she owned until 2 April 1847, on which date "Mary Winder, single woman" sold this lot to John Denny.
Robert L. Winder, 1/19/2009:
Daniel Winder, who moved from Fayette Co., PA to Harrison County, Ohio, later to Guernsey Co., and then "disappeared" until 1839, when he sold his land in Guernsey County, had a daughter Elizabeth who was born in 1806.
Jesse Chalfant lived in Belmont Co., Ohio in 1830, I believe it was. I just looked at patents for lands sold by the Steubenville Land Office, and found a patent issued to Jesse Chalfant for 79.11 acres in Guernsey County in 1821. The land was located in section 17 of Township 9 of Range 7. So Jesse Chalfant may have been a "neighbor" of Daniel Winder and his daughter Elizabeth. Her birthday is right, it seems.
