About 40 years ago, a friend who was researching her Snell ancestors in the vicinity of the town of Windsor in York County showed me the following mysterious line on page 725 of John Gibson's "History of York County". The paragraph describing Windsorville, in Windsor Township refers to a name that probably existed prior to the establishment of the first post office there in 1832. It reads: "We refrain from giving the original name of this apparently prosperous hamlet, or recording the legend from which it was obtained; if the name was practical it was not poetical, and we omit it." As a native of Windsor I am very curious to find the details of the early name and legend that John Gibson found it wise to omit. I have questioned numerous York County residents and historians without success. Is anyone aware of this story? I'd love to hear even your wild speculations.
