      «b»Samuel Winders«/b» (born Aug. 7, 1802 in KY, died in Fayette Co., PA in 1855). Samuel was married to Margaret Burnside 04 Mar 1827 in Fayette Co., PA; they lived in Masontown (formerly known as Germantown).

      [snip]
      He [Robert L. Winder] is trying to help Bill Wallace. His first effort has been to pin down who he has records on --Earhart and Samuel. He mentioned a Samuel Winder who died in Fayette County, PA in 1855 who was born in Bullitt County KY in 1802. He was a school director in German Township (in PA, I think). Anyway, got me to wondering if this Samuel might be German.
