I am researching my family history and it has a path through Carter County. I believe sometime around 1800 Adam Winsell Sr. and Adam Winsell Jr. settled in Carter County. I think Adam Sr. had been a captain in the revolutionary war. Adam Jr. was a captain in the East Tennessee Militia and fought at the battle of Horseshoe Bend in 1814 under Colonel Allison. Adam Jr. moved to Indiana after the war but I believe that Adam Sr. stayed in Carter County for the remainder of his days. I believe he may have passed on sometime in the 1830's. I don't know his wifes name but I think she proceeded him in death. Possibly your book might contain a clue. I am looking for any information regarding my relatives from this era.. I would appreciate any help you could offer. (There can be variations of our surname Winsell, Winsel, Wincel, Vincel, Vencil etc.) Thanks in advance for your help, Jeff Winsell My email is jeffyjoe@aol.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
