  • Notes 
    • (Research):An Ellen Winder appears in «a href="https://familysearch.org/search/collection/results?count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3AEllen~%20%2Bsurname%3AWinder~&collection_id=1596147" »Virginia, Freedmen's Bureau Field Office Records, 1865-1872«/a» on FamilySearch.org, indicating Ellen had been a slave before the Civil War.

      From Deven Winders Lewis, Apr 2014:
      I do think that James and Ellen were slaves. I've gone through some of the Freedman's Bureau documents at familysearch.org - there are tons of them for an Ellen Winder of Hampton, Elizabeth City, VA and a few for a James Winder. ... - she's identified as a nurse at Freedmen's Hospital at Hampton, Elizabeth City County, in others as a laundress...

      I came up with a few other names on one of Ellen's records - a Dolly Winder and a Thomas Winder, who appear to have been patients under Ellen's care at the Freedmen's Hospital there in Hampton, Elizabeth City.
