Notes |
- According to Deven Lewis (May 2013):
«b»Marsham Winder («/b»born c. 1790-1800 per the 1830 census for Harrison Co., IN; died c. 1833). In the 1830 census, Marsham was single, no children, lived in Heath/Heth Township. His estate was probated in Harrison County, IN; partition of the estate for sale of real property occurred in 1842 and names the 8 heirs. [We have assumed the heirs to be siblings of Marsham and are recorded here as children of "Hypothetical Winders" to keep them grouped together in the database. AW]
- (Research):1830 census
1 male 30-39 (1791-1800)
Jan 2011: The following is now in doubt, the thinking being that Marsham was a sibling of James G. and Cordelia. I will leave this in until research is complete.

Ann,
Thanks for the information and inquiry into the Winder Family in this part of the country. My mother was a Winders from the Bucks Co. PA Winder family. I am missing two generations from the PA Winder to the IN Winder and because of the missing links I am going by family lore on where the Winders came from.
The first conncection I found was Marsham Winder, who with his son James G. and dau Cordelia appeared in Harrison Co. IN in 1824. James G. Winder married Ruth Cohoe in 1824. and Cordelia Winder married William Trotter the same day.
James G. and Cordelia settled Marsham's estate in 1833 and Marsham's wife Rebecca married again in a couple of years. The Winder name was changed to Winders with the s added about the time my grandfather was born in 1874 in IN.
I guess I am from the southern Winder family. There were other Winders in KY about 1810 and I have no info on them, I suspect they knew each other and may be kin. I think they might have been from the Maryland group.
My line is as follows.
Marsham Winder- b. d. 1833 in IN
wife Rebecca Unk.
son- James G. Winder b. 1794 PA d. 1857 IN.
dau. Cordelia Winder b. 1800 MD or PA d.
James G. Winder b. PA
wife Ruth Cohoe b. 1800 KY d. 1879 IN.
son James Clinton Winder b. 1834 PA d. 1888 IN
James Clinton Winder b. PA
wife Anna V. Davis b. 1855 IN
son Marcus Lafayette Winder b. 1874 IN d. 1954 KY
Marcus Lafayette Winders b. 1874 IN
wife Rosa Ella Dalton
dau Pearl Mildred Winders b.1910 IL. d. 1997 PA. ( MY Mother)
Pearl Mildred Winders b. 1910
husband Morgan Hopson Wallace b. 1898 KY ( MY Father)
According to my mother James G. Winder made trips to Bucks Co. PA and this is where I started looking especially since James G. and many of his children were born in PA. I don't think many trips were made after the war between the states.
My great grandfather James Clinton Winder fought in the 53 IND Reg for the Union Army as did many of this brothers and one nephew. They were used to patrol and fight along the Ohio River below Louisville, KY. in the State of IN.
My missing link is from Marsham Winder back to PA, I can't find a marriage record or a census record or any records of Marsham living or getting married in PA. Since Marsham's son was named James, that must have been the name of Marshams father, according the trend of naming children.
Some of the Winder's that lived in KY in 1810 moved back to MD, so Marsham could have migrated to MD from PA or born there. When I find Marsham's marriage or census record, I will be able to tell more about them.
I am more than likely a descendent of one of the James Winders from Bucks Co. I looked through your line of Winders hoping to find Marsham. He may have had another name and used it sometimes. I have found other Winders that did that and it causes confusion for a time. Sometimes my ggrandfather James Clinton would use James C and sometimes Clinton and until I had another researcher point this out I didn't know who Clinton was.
If you find a marriage record in PA around 1790-94, I suspect the Marsham Winder Family was in KY for a short period of time, in fact I am living in the county Marsham might have been in but I haven't found a record of him, I did find James G. in one record. Most of the Winders that lived in IN have migrated back north to IL and OH.
Thanks again for the contact, if there is anything else that I might help you with let me know.
Hope you have a Merry Christmas,
Bill Wallace, Radcliff, KY.
