• Notes

  From Mount Morris: Past and Present Ann Elizabeth (Knodle) Winders was born in Washington County, Md., Nov 4, 1832, and died in Mount Morris, Aug 25, 1920, aged nearly 88 years. She came with her parents to Mount Morris in September, 1841, making the trip by team, which required six weeks. She lived her entire life in Mount Morris since 1841 and was one of the earliest settlers in the community. She married John Winders and they had four children: Bert, John, Elbert and Mrs. Kittie Price. She was an active member of the Lutheran Church for many years. (Research):From John Winder (2013): I started to put together in narrative form what I've found out about the WInderses who went Washington County => Ogle County -- that would be the brothers John and Elias Upton Winders, their cousins Hiram and John N. Winders, and a fifth (so far unconnected)--John M. Winders, who married Elizabeth J. Knodle out in Ogle County in 1854. Of course, as soon as one starts writing, one starts going back over and double-checking things, just to be sure, and in the process of doing that this morning, I ran across a loose end in Pine Creek Township of Ogle County--an Elizabeth Winders, age 20 shows up in the 1850 census there, living in the household of Henry Artz and his family. In the same 1850 census (enumerated by the same person, to judge from the hand writing), in Mount Morris, Illinois, there is an Elizabeth Knodle, age 20, living in the household of Benjamin Swingley and his family, along with a Jacob Knodle, age 8 months. So my question is, who is this Elizabeth Winders, born about 1830, living by herself with the Artz family in Pine Creek Twp? And if John M. Winders in fact married Elizabeth Knodle in Polo in 1854, what became of little Jacob? The 1870 census shows her (as Winder, Ann E.) in Mount Morris with children Kate (14), Bayard F. (12), Elbert (9) and John (7). She is called "Mrs. E. Winders" in the 1865 Illinois census, with 3 boys under 10 and a daughter plus self--no husband John noted in either 1865 or 1870, as he apparently died shortly after Elbert was born. (And just as a by the way, evidently John M. and Elizabeth (Knodle) Winders lived briefly in Iowa around 1858, since Bayard was born in Iowa, whereas all the other kids were born in Illinois). .//john
