Hi, I am Valerie Winn, and I do live in Sumner Co., TN. Wynnewood is coming along with the restoration. It is a slow process, but they are doing a good job. My gg grandfather also had a home in Gallatin (Sumner Co.,). His name was Mourning Winn, father of Hiram Lewis Winn, father of Warner Albert Winn, father of William Buford, Homer Powell, Lewis Albert, Howard Runyon, Sarah Ellen (Terry), Betty Ruth (Stannard), Martha Louise (Lewis). I am the daughter of Betty Ruth Winn. There is a Winn cemetery on Mourning Winn's farm, but I haven't been able to get the county to try to find it. ----- Original Message ----- From: winn-request@rootsweb.com To: winn@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2009 2:01:38 AM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: WINN Digest, Vol 4, Issue 144 Today's Topics: 1.

An order blank can be found at www.winndata.com WINN-DANIEL AND HIS 9 SONS I have ordered a copy of the book but have not received it at this time. Price is $38.00 for non-Tennessee or non-Georgia residents. Columbia in Maury County, TN is where General Richard Winn settled and died. Another Wynne, Alfred Royal Wynne, lived in Sumner County, TN near Castalian Springs. A. R. Wynne built the largest log home in Tennessee, and it served as a stage coach stop and inn--the home is call Wynnewood and is presently owned by the state of Tennessee. Wynnewood was heavily damaged by a tornado on Feb. 5, 2008. Some of this Wynne family are buried at Cragfont, the home of General James Winchester, just about 5 miles from Wynnewood. The two families were related through marriage of children.

To provide that information the best way I have found to do it, I have put this page on the Internet: http://www.ancestor-rescue.com/Winn/originsDirect.htm I would be particularly interested in finding out what others have documented on these families and working with them on documenting them. I have looked at what is available via Google and will continue to search there. Be advised that much of my Winn ancestry is currently under revision this Winter. I started this genealogy with the J. Winn manuscript from the 1930s. I have made many additions and changes but didn't do a very good job of documenting things. I am now fully appreciative of the value of documentation. I hope to become increasingly savvy at documenting family history and to be able to incorporate that into this website. Thanks for your support, Randy C.
