Hi again - thought I'd add a little more information to the mailing I sent earlier. There was a Daniel Winn (also spelled Wyn) who had dealings with William Hardy - and lived near him - I this Daniel would be about the right age to be a brother or cousin to Mary Elizabeth. Does anyone have information on any Daniel Winn from this time period? This is from a former Winn List post (I think) and it mentions William Hardy: Winn, Daniel 4-3-1789; 2-14-1799; W.B. 4/240 Mentions: Son: Joseph Winn Executor: Joseph Winn (son) Witnesses: Jonathan Patterson, William Hardy, James Scott, Ashley Davis Also this: Will of Joseph Winn Dated March 28,1800 Probated June 12,1800 Will book No. 5, page 2022 Mentions wife: Elizabeth Winn Sons: Benjamin Winn and his wife Creasey Daniel Winn Joseph Winn Bannister Winn Minor Winn Daughters: Sarah B.
