  Notes from Chuck Winder: LAURA BELLE5 DOTSON, b. July 3, 1888, Dexter, Mo; d. September 5, 1973, Troy, Mo.; m. (1) UNKNOWN JAGGAR, Abt. 1904; m. (2) LEWIS SAMUAL WINDER, February 7, 1905, Greenville, Mo.; b. February 20, 1882, Du Quoin, IL.; d. April 28, 1966, Moscow Mills Mo.; m. (3) UNKNOWN MCKINNIS, Abt. 1947. Aunt Laura had 4 children, 2 girls that died at birth. My Grandmother's told me that her nickname when she was a little girl was "Little Cotton" Aunt Laura's was "Little Bell" or "Lulu Bell" and They called Ernest was Long Nose Sharp Shitten Skin." I do not know what Ollie's or Suez's was but Gram and Aunt Laura told me that they all had one. I never thought of an Indian connection to the names until now. Notes from her grandson Chuck (Charles Scott): My grandmother was Lillie Dotson. Her mother was Mary Jane Winder daughter of Joseph Winder. Mary Jane Winder died when my grandmother was 3 years old. Her father and sisters went to lived with Joseph Winder per census in 1900. My grandmother's father died when she was 7 years old. His name was Andrew J. Dotson, he died in Piggot ARK. 1902. Elizabeth Foster, Joseph's wife also, died then. My Grandmother only got to go to the 3rd grade due to she had to pick cotton and work around the house. She married her first husband at the age of 12 or 13 he was Will James. Her second husband was Eli Henry Lee McDaniel. He was my grandfather. Gram Lived in Butler Co. for about 12 years. My Grandmother's told me that her nickname when she was a little girl was "Little Cotton" Aunt Laura's was "Little Bell" or "LuLu Bell" and They called Ernest was Long Nose Sharp Shitten Skin." I do not know what Ollie's or Suez's was but Gram and Aunt Laura told me that they all had one. I never thought of an Indian connection to the names until now. However, on my Grandmother's head stone it has a middle initial of H. that is not correct. But I'm not sure what her middle name was sometime she used Thelma and sometimes she used Elve thats what she told me when I would ask her. [1]
