Notes - Jefferson served in the Civil War and didn't know that his son Lyman was in the war until they met on the battlefield one day.

Ann,
I was able to look at your Winder Wunderland, looking for my lost Marsham Winder and noticed two Winder's , Jefferson and Louisa I believe they both married in the Funkhouser Family in Harrison Co. IN. This is the bunch I descend from and they are the grandchildren of my lost Marsham and the children of James G. and Ruth Cohoe Winder of Ky and Harrison Co. IN. This where I have been stuck for 20 yrs. James G. was born in PA in 1794 and the family tales are that it was Bucks Co. PA but I haven't been able to locate them in Bucks or PA. If they are from Bucks Co. then they are probably descendents of Thomas and Sarah Bull.
