      From Leariod Winder, Apr 2002: " My grand pa John Columbus told me that he was black Irish. I was concerned about his dark hair and eyes. I only remember grandpa as a gentle and religious man. He was a deacon in General Baptist Church. He mentioned coal mines, and rail road work. Worked I know at day labor. Married Martha Harriet Doyle dob-1871. She spoke of Holt County and St. Jo (Joseph) Mo., believed to be Indian by many, me??
      A Godly man. I visited him near Popular Bluff, Missouri, on the Saint Frances river, a couple miles north east of a small town called Fargus in 1938. I set a line at night and caught a four foot eel. When he saw my catch he seemed to get more excited then I had ever seen him. I had never known anyone to eat eel before or since. As I think about it now, it comes to mind that many people in England and Ireland think of eels as a great treat.
      The only thing I remember about his heritage was that he was Black Irish. I have never known what that means. Some how I connected it as a child with coal mining, or rail-road work, maybe not.
      More about John Columbus Winder: A Godly man: Was loved by all. No enemies." Burial: Ash Hill, Butler Co., Mo.
