• Notes

  According to John H Winder:«u»«b» Fred Newell Winders «/u»«/b» was born in Pine Creek township on 2 February 1881 and, like his older brother Charles, probably moved to Dixon, Illinois with his family in the 1890s. As a young man he worked for the Illinois Central Railroad at its Freeport (Illinois) office, and later spent his career as an agent for the St. Louis and Southern Railroad in its Chicago office. He married «u»Ruth Victoria Long «/u» (1881-1972) in Freeport, Illinois on 22 March 1906. The Freeport Journal-Standard reported that the bride was a "very popular young lady in this city", a "young lady of marked domestic tastes, and is a model housekeeper" and had been employed at the Freeport Telephone Exchange for the last four years. The groom, an employee of the Illinois Central Railroad in the dispatcher's office, was reported to be "regarded as a young man of sterling worth and varied capabilities." Immediately after the wedding ceremony, Ruth's niece, 5-week-old Carolyn Schwartze was baptized, after which all involved retired to a "handsomely appointed dinner". The couple lived at 1117 6«sup»th«/sup» Avenue in Maywood Village (Proviso township, Cook County) and had four children: «u»Clayton Winders «/u» (1907-1991), «u»Genevieve Winders «/u» (1912-2004), «u»Mildred Ruth Winders «/u» (1914-1995) and «u»Robert Wilfred Winders «/u» (1918-2005). Fred Newell Winders died 25 October 1954 and funeral services were held in Maywood; Ruth Long Winders died 26 December 1972. [2]
