Judy: Here's all I have on my Winn: James W. Winn, born abt 1871 (probably MO), died abt 1951. He married 15 Nov 1899 to Ida M. Cubbage (my line) and they had (at least) one child, George Warren Winn, born 14 Nov 1906. Both the father and the son were doctors. I was told by Mrs. Cecil V. Boyd that prior to his marriage to Ida Dr. Winn was married to Mary Maude Dysart (Feb 1897), and I think Mary died shortly after they married, possibly in childbirth (Dec 1897). I'd like to confirm that with a Dysart researcher. Here are my notes on Dr. Winn: "WINN, JAMES WARREN B. 1871. Graduated 1895 from MO Medical College (now Washington Univ. School of Medicine). Licensed in MO: 1895. Lived in Higbee, Randolph County, MO for 1910,1920 and 1930 census. Higbee News: Friday, 28 June, 1918, Vol 32, No 11--DR. J. W. WINN TO BE CALLED-The Randolph Medical Society of Defense, at a meeting in Moberly the first of the week, selected Dr. J. W. Winn of this place as one of the Randolph county physicians for army service. All physicians in the county under 55 years, we learn, have been requested to fill out volunteer enlistment blanks which will be furnished them. Dr. Winn informs us that he expects to be called early this fall and that his drug store is for sale. In the event he does not find a buyer soon he will close out the stock by special sales. Higbee News: Friday, 14 Mar 1919, Vol 32. No 47--Dr. J. W. Winn, who was called home from Waco, Texas, by the death of his father-in-law, Harvey Cubbage missed connection at Kansas City and did not arrive until Sunday night. He is delighted with military service and does not expect to be discharged for some time to come. He returned to Waco yesterday. He was Commander of Higbee's WWI era Post of The American Legion and oversaw official burials of some returned bodies. The son, George Warren, became a physician and practiced in Boonville, Cooper County, MO." I'd love to know all the dates and places on this family. I can't find the date of death for Ida or Dr. Winn. I think they may be buried in Boonville, but I'm not sure. I'd like to know if there were other children. Also like to know if the son married, etc. Thanks, Charles Leach -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2006 6:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MoRandolph] Winn HI: I have a James W.

Dr. J. W. Winn's l95l obit is in my files in the Randolph Co Historical Society in Moberly, where I visit most Saturday AMs. I'll try to remember to copy it if I go there this Saturday. Mrs. Winn died before him, but I can't recall copying her obit. The editor of 'The Higbee News' died in l948, and I am working on a book based on articles written by him and his father. The News was sold and published for two or three years afterwards, and I copied some items of potential interest, including Dr. W's obit. I briefly knew Dr. Warren Winn since he was on the board of directors of a Boonville bank and my father operated the Higbee bank. We would see him at area bank meetings.
