• Notes

  From Past and present of DeKalb County, Illinois, pg 478: Thomas Jefferson Winders, editor and proprietor of the Malta Record and Creston Observer, was born in Nevada City, Colorado, January 20, 1863, a son of John N. and Susan (Powell) Winders, both of whom were natives of Washington county, Maryland, the former born in 1829 and the latter in 1834. In 1855 the parents came to Illinois, settling in Polo, but after two years removed to St. Joseph, Missouri, where they remained for a year and a half. On the expiration of that period they removed to Nevada City, Colorado. The father was both a civil and mining engineer and he opened and conducted a gold and silver mine, which he owned for some time, later disposing of it to an English syndicate. He remained in Nevada City until 1875 and then removed to Silver Plume, Colorado, where he lived until his death, which occurred in 1897. In 1871, Mrs. Winders, accompanied by her little son, returned to Polo, Illinois, and there resided until called to her final rest March 28, 1905, at the age of seventy-two years, four months and ten days.
