Earl, where are you living now,,,,,,,, I am living in King William, Virginia. I have contacts with some of the ancestors of Ferdinand Winn from King William, Ferdinand went to Charles City Va early 1800s. I have not looked very much into the Minor name.

I see a Catherine Minor living very close to him on census records. His is listed as Miles Adams, but oral history says Miles Winn Adams.

It would be helpful to see the documented children from Richard, Ann and Phoebe. I have notes indicating that there may have been 9 children born to Richard from these two marriages, but no documentation. It is worth mentioning that Richard is reputed to be the son of the elusive John Winn and Elizabeth Minor, and the brother of Minor Winn. I hope someone will find out the real linage so I can figure out from whence I came. Hopefully, Earl Ferguson --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
