It is west of Goshen and south of Middletown. U.S. Route 6 passes through it, including the towns of Denton and Slate Hill. I'm all too familiar with the name, because I misread its spelling in the 1860 census district name for my great-great grandfather William Winters of Denton. --Bruce (Bruce Hamilton, Redondo Beach, CA) bhami@netcom.com (preferred) bhami@hesp.es.xerox.com --day 310-333-3538 --day http://home.earthlink.net/~bhami/
