• Notes

  According to DAR records, Joseph was only child to marry. According to Winders of America: On Seventh month 4, 1781, Thomas and Moses Winder were dealt with by Falls Monthly Meeting for "having paid several fines for not associating to learn the Art of War and going out as soldiers." As they were not prepared to make the required acknowledgment at the next Monthly Meeting, the cases were carried over. Thomas Winder acknowledged his "wrong-doing", Twelfth month 5, 1781, which acknowledgment the meeting accepted. According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000): Thomas Winder, born 25 February 1733, died 16 December 1785, who married Elizabeth Linton, daughter of Joseph and Mary Blackshaw Linton of Northampton Township on 11 May 1758. Mary Blackshaw was a daughter of Nehemiah Blackshaw (ca. 1675-ca,1744) and his first wife, Elizabeth Bye. Elizabeth Linton Winder died 24 September 1795. The will of Thomas Winder is recorded in Bucks County, PA, written in December of 1785 and proved on 12 Jan 1786. This will shows that Thomas had a wife Elizabeth, sons Joseph and Thomas, and daughters Mary and Rebecca. Son Joseph, according to Records of the Falls Meeting of the Friends Society, married Ruth Buckman on 12 April 1792. Winders of America evidently is incorrect in stating that James Winder, "the only known child of Thomas and Elizabeth Linton Winder", married Ruth Buckman. No children of this marriage are known. Ruth Buckman (1755-1846) was a descendant of Edward Buckman, a "proved" arrival aboard the Welcome in 1682, according to George E. McCracken's The Welcome Claimants, Proved, Disproved, and Doubtful, published in 1985 by the Welcome Society of Pennsylvania. [4]
