      From Robert L. Winder, June 2000:
      A little bit about another stray, Charles Winder, subject. He served in the Civil War, in Co C of the 143rd Ohio (Ohio National Guard) Volunteer Infantry as a private. He applied for a pension on 6 October 1888, but never received any pay before his death on 1 February 1890 at Hanoverton, Columbiana County, Ohio. His widow, Anna Rachel Thompson Winder, then applied for pension and submitted a copy of her marriage record from the probate court of Columbiana County, Ohio, which stated that she was married to Charles Winder on 12 November 1863, by D. M. Miller, Minister of the Gospel. Dates of service not stated in pension file. The 143rd OVI was mustered into service in 1864 to meet the threat against Washington by Genl Early, I believe, as my grt-grandfather, Elihu Winder, was mustered into one of these Ohio National Guard Regiments at about the same time.

      Charles Winder received a slight sunstroke on 4 July 1864 while doing guard duty at a spring. This sunstroke was followed by malaria fever. He was sent to the Regimental Hospital then at Williams Landing, VA and Capt Arter, so he deposed, assigned Dr. Finney to "take special charge of me". He was next sent to Hampton hospital, Va. and from there furloughed home in charge of Lt. David Burson. He was discharged 13 Sept 1864 at Camp Chase, Ohio [Columbus, Ohio]. He stated in the same declararion that he was unable to perform manual labor by reason of his disabilities, to the extent of 3/4 Emmet T. Winder and Lizzie Johnson, on 10 Apr 1890, deposed that they knew that Anna R. Winder was the widow of Charles Winder, as they were living together as man and wife and raised a large family of children.Anna R. Winder named her children by the soldier still living and under the age of sixteen as:
      Karl H. Winder, born 7 November 1875
      Ralph A. Winder, born 2 October 1877
      Henry G. Winder, born 28 October 1879
      Jessie C. Winder, born 30 August 1881
      Artie M. Winder, born 13 March 1883
      Alta C. Winder, born 13 March 1883
      Fred C. Winder, born 7 May 1884
      She also stated that she still had these children in her care.
      An affidavit in file from Joel Winder, 41 yrs old, of Hanoverton, Ohio, stated that soldier was a sound healthy man before going into service, and since, and said only that he was an intimate acquaintance of the soldier.

      I did not find in this file a date of death for Anna R. Winder, the widow, which seems unusual to me. Maybe I missed it ?
