Winfield of Pike County Georgia. According to Census information, he was born in Georgia. He married Mary "Polly" Gooch in Greene County Georgia on May 18, 1828. They moved to Pike County Georgia before 1850. James L. Winfield, Sr. died in Pike County Georgia in May of 1860 of Cancer. He is listed in the 1860 Pike County Morality Schedule. His age is listed as 70. He made his will Pike County Georgia and it was recorded July 5, 1860. He mentions his wife Mary or Polly and children named James L. Winfield, Jr., William F. F. Winfield, and one other which is unreadable. He also mentions a Grandson of his wife Polly who is living them named James Edwin Gooch. He makes it sound as though it is not his Grandson but is the Grandson of his wife suggesting that she was married before. It mentions that both of James Edwin Gooch's parents are deceased. I am especially interested in James L. Winfield, Jr. and a photo of him if anyone has one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
