• Notes

  Notes by Johnny Walker: Also the granddaughter Tabitha Winders (I don't think she was Tabitha Jane, just plain Tabitha) never married. She had children by her sister's husband, Samuel McColpin. One of her children used the surname Winders in the 1850 census but on his marriage record it was McColpin. My Martha A. Winders belonged to Tabitha Winders and was born out of wedlock according to our family tradition. You have Martha "T" Winders (her middle initial was "A" not "T") as a daughter of Tabitha's brother John. John did have a daughter named Martha A. from his second marriage but she is not the same age as my Martha A. who married Andrew J. McFarland. The 1870 census showing Martha A. Winders in the household of her husband in Todd Co., Kentucky, reveals that Martha could not read and write. The obituary of Martha A. Winders McFarland appears in The Parisian, Semi-Weekly, Paris, Tennessee, Tuesday, May 29, 1900, Volume 1, Number 43, page 2: Mrs. McFarland, a very old lady, died of cancer at the home of Sam Pillow, in the Fourth District, last night. The remains will be buried at McFarland graveyard this afternoon. Tombstone record gives her date of birth as 1822. [2]
