Surnames: Winch Classification: Death Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/gh.2ADI/5549 Message Board Post: The Warren News, Friday, March 28, 1890 W.E. Winch received a telegram from Fort Wayne last Saturday evening announcing the sad and startling news that his mother had died suddenly while sitting at the table eating her supper. Mr. Winch had been in Fort Wayne the same day and ate dinner with his mother. She had not been in the best of health for some time, but still was able to be up and around the house. She was fifty-nine years of age, was in easy circumstances and bid fair to live a number of years yet, but was attacked by apoplexy and never spoke afterwards. Mr. Winch and family took the train at Montpelier Sunday evening and attended the funeral which took place on Monday afternoon.
