Found this at: http://rootsweb.com/~mocallaw/census.html The "Census Taker" It was the first day of census, and all through the land; The pollster was ready ... a black book in hand. He mounted his horse for a long dusty ride; His book and some quills were tucked close by his side. A long winding ride down a road barely there; Toward the smell of fresh bread wafting up through the air. The woman was tired, with lines on her face; And wisps of brown hair she tucked back into place. She gave him some water ... as they sat at the table; And she answered his questions ... the best she was able. He asked of her children ... Yes, she had quite a few; The oldest was twenty, the youngest not quite two. She held up a toddler with cheeks round and red; his sister, she whispered, was napping in bed. She noted each person who lived there with pride; And she felt the faint stirrings of the wee one inside. He noted the sex, the colour, the age .. The marks from the quill soon filled up the page. At the number of children, she nodded her head; And saw her lips quiver for the three that were dead. The places of birth she "never forgot"; Was it Kansas? or Utah? Or Oregon ... or not? They came from Scotland, of that she was clear; But she wasn't quite sure just how long they'd been here. They spoke of employment, of schooling and such; They could read some and write some ... though really not much. When the questions were answered, his job there was done; So he mounted his horse and he rode toward the sun. We can imagine his voice loud and clear; "May God Bless you all for another ten years." Now picture a time warp ... it's now you and me; As we search for the people on our family tree. We squint at the census and scroll down so slow; As we search for that entry from long, long ago. Could they only imagine on that long ago day; That the entries they made would effect us this way? If they knew, would they wonder at the yearning we feel; And the searching that makes them so increasingly real. We can hear if we listen the words they impart; Through their blood in our veins and their voices in our heart. Author Unknown

Hi Brian, I am a descendant of John Joseph Winn through Douglass Irby Winn and have worked some on this line. Cindy Horrrace and I have corresponded but I haven't talked to her in awhile. I will check to see if I have any documentation that is not listed. I do have copies of the land patent information and do have a location of his grave. I haven't had a chance to go there to photo it yet and it was a rundown grave yard several years ago. I would be happy to exchange information with you. I do have the will of John's brother Charles (a physician) as well. This was a well educated family. Do you have any pictures of the family?

I have scanned and would be happy to email anyone any of the documents listed. Does anyone have any additional information, documents, or thoughts on him? Thanks Brian Winn P.S. Cindy: hint, hint, hint - - - - From: "A Lineage and Brief History of the Rawlings Family - Complied by a Descendant", released by W. J. Knight, Urbana, Ohio 3-1-1931: " . .. . John Winn whose coming to this county from Fleming County, Kentucky influenced six of the sons and daughters of Thomas Rawlings to come, visit, William, James, Elizabeth, Barbara, Malinda and Sally." "John Winn deserves a place in this memorial of our ancestors. I never knew him, as he was one of the pioneer settlers in Champaign County, Ohio, entering land here as early as 1805. James Rawlings married his granddaughter, and his sister, Elizabeth, married his son Douglass Irby Winn. I have often heard James Rawlings speak of John Winn. He gave me the impression that John Winn was a remarkable man. I have heard him tell many times a story that illustrated John Winn's adeptness with figures. The story was that he could count a flock of geese flying over his head at the same time he was counting a drove of hogs coming through a gate. The rapid use of figures was handed down to succeeding members to the Rawlings family, some of whom could calculate easily and rapidly. There was a close relationship between the Winn and Rawlings families. We are fortunate to tract this relationship back to the days when these two families emigrated from Virginia to Kentucky. From the biography of James G. Caldwell published in the History of Champaign County in 1881 we learn that this Caldwell was a grandson of John Winn, his mother being Jane Winn-Caldwell, daughter of John Winn. He states that John Winn was a Virginian by birth, and that he emigrated to Fleming County, Kentucky about the year 1796. This account says that "he came to Kentucky from Virginia in an ox cart with no property save a Negro boy and his cattle." His wife's name was Myrtilla Minor and "she inherited 20 Negroes from her father's estate." When he came to Ohio, a free state, "he freed all his slaves and gave his name as security for their good behavior." With these facts disclosed concerning the movements of John Winn we are able to reach the conclusion that John Winn came to Fleming County, Kentucky from Virginia, at the same time, or about the same time that Persley Rawlings came which was about 1795 according to record. There could have been very little difference in the ages of John Winn and Thomas Rawlings , son of Persley Rawlings. Since Douglass I. Winn brought his bride, Elizabeth Rawlings, from Kentucky to Champaign County where relatives of both had previously settled, there is little doubt but that these two families knew each other in Virginia and came west together to Kentucky. The esteem of James Rawlings for the Winns is further reflected in the fact that he honored the name by giving it to two of his sons. He named his oldest son, William John Winn Rawlings, and his youngest son, Douglass Winn Rawlings. John Winn became an extensive land owner in Champaign and Clark Counties. He obtained the patent from the government for one entire section of land in Champaign County which, for natural drainage, fertility and uniformity of surface cannot be excelled in the State of Ohio. This section, containing 640 acres, is know as Section 18, Town 5, Range 10, and lies in the very heart, or center, of what has been known for many years as "Pretty Prairie." He also owned other tracts of land in this immediate vicinity, one of which was 40 acres which he deeded to James Rawlings in 1834 and farms part of the farm upon which James spent his life in Ohio. I have not yet (1930) been able to locate the grave of John Winn though it is likely that he is buried somewhere on land he once owned. It used to be customary to set aside a lot on the farm to be used as family burying ground. The grave of Myrtilla Winn, John's wife, may be seen in a little grave yard on the east line of said Section 18 by the roadside. This yard contains the remains of several members and connection of the Will [Winn] family as follows: Myrtilla, wife of John Winn, Sr. died August 1, 1822, age 58 years. Chas. Winn died August 17, 1847, aged 47 years. Myrtilla, daughter of J & M Winn died September 29, 1840, aged 40 years (Evidently Chas. and Myrtilla were twins) Martha, wife of Wm. McRoberts died December 19, 1848, aged 58 years. Susana I., wife of Aquilla Bishop, died September 2[3], 1823, aged 31 years.

John Joseph's will leaves half his estate to his wife Margaret and son Hosea Ballou Winn [Cindy Keen]. Middle Name of Joseph comes from "Descendants of John Minor". - - - - Moved from Nottoway County, VA to Mason County, KY by 1798; 1798-1812 in Fleming County, KY; 1812-1823 in Champaign County, OH; 1823 Clark County, OH [Becky Thill] - - - - - "I am most interested to know where the middle name "Joseph" came from here, having never seen it in any document relating to Col. John Winn. Col. John did not marry abt. 1740. He married Susanna Irby in Amelia County on 4 Apr. 1754. His son Richard was not born abt. 1765, as he married Jane Pincham in Amelia County in 1779 and had already been serving as a Sergeant in the army before his marriage according to an affidavit made by his brother-in-law, William Pincham. He was probably born in the neighborhood of 1755-58. Ann Avery Hunter, Richmond, Virginia, [[email protected]] From Cindy Keen: "My opinion is that John Winn was John and not John Joseph Winn. I have not seen the proof that his middle name was a Joseph so I have him listed as John Winn". 4-21-02 (BNW note: I am not convinced his middle name is Joseph, but until proof comes along either way, I am keeping it as John Joseph Winn because I have too many John Winn's already!!) - - - - - Kathy Hughes: There is a deed from John WINN who married Myrtilla MINOR after he has gone to KY and I found it in the book NOTES ON SOUTHSIDE FAMILIES by Walter A. Watson. It is shown this way in the book: - - - - - WINN, JOHN, 1794. Deed from John Winn, of Mason County, KY, and John Tabb, of Amelia County, VA, to Freeman Epes, of Amelia, to land on Lazaretta Creek, adjoining lands of Peter Randolph and Robert Fitzgerald. Nottoway D.B.1. Just beneath it is a deed dated 1788 from Richard WINN to Freeman EPES in consideration of a loan by EPES; I assume this to be Richard WINN, the brother of John and of Jane, their sister who married Freeman EPES. - - - - - - In the name of God Amen.

Response from an email dated 9-11-03 from Kathy Willett [[email protected]] "I think that whoever reported this information to the author had somewhat mixed up all of the names; maybe they were old and never knew the facts too well to begin with. I also think that this article is how the "Joseph" got stuck in with John. I know I've commented on this before but this is the ONLY article or document that I have ever seen that has used the name Joseph when speaking of John WINN. As for Miss BARKLEY, Myrtilla MINOR had a brother named BARTLEY and he was named for Bartholomew COX (I believe her grandfather?) so again, I think someone's fragmented memory came up with BARKLEY.

Dear Cuz Ellen, My mom is a Red Hatter she is the Vice Queen of the Ladies of the Alamo in San Antonio Texas... I would be a Pink hatter as I am 49. But I call myself their mascot because I am not a member. I only have helped out when Mom couldn't carry the load because of her cancer recovery this year.. that is how I got involved... And to say the least I worked my legs off between the Queen and the Vice Queen, getting the conversion done. But Mom had a ball and the event went off with out a hitch and they all had a blast, including spontaneously doing the Can Can and starting a Conga line during Saturday nights banquet... they had a blast.
