(found this bio on LABETTE COUNTY KANSAS page, while using Alta Vista search engine.) Hope someone can use it. JERRY WINDBIGLER, farmer, P. O. Oswego, was born in Lancaster County, Pa., in 1820. At the age of twelve he removed with his parents to Richland, Ohio, where he was brought up on a farm. He lived there twenty-two years, and removed to Kosciusko County, Ind., where he resided ten years, and then moved to Fulton County in the same State in 1864. In the spring of 1874 he emigrated to Kansas, and settled on a quarter section of land, seven miles northwest of Oswego. Mr. Windbiger is a careful and prosperous farmer, and has succeeded in establishing each of his five children on farms around him. He was married to Martha Dooremire, of Crawford County, Ohio, in 1841. She was born in 1824, in the same State. They have five children living - John S., married to Elizabeth Ault, enlisted in an Indiana regiment, and serving through the late war; Hannah Jane, married to W. S.
