If you want another really kewl link...although you have to go way, way back... Coel Hen was the king of what is now modern Wales. He lived 350 to 450 A.D. The Wynne/Winn family can be traced back to Coel Hen. You say Coel Hen doesn't sound familiar? What if I told you that the term "Hen" is Welch for "old". Still doesn't sound familiar...think about one of your favorite nursery rhymes...Old King Cole (actually spelled Coel). By the way, for a little history on some of the more famous (and very royal) Wynne ancestors, take a look at the book British Kings and Queens by Mike Ashley. Most book stores have it or can order it. -----Original Message----- From: PooolSide@aol.com [mailto:PooolSide@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 1:16 PM To: WINN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [WINN] (no subject) Subj: For Your Consderation WINN/WYNN/WYNNE Cuzzins Date: 11/19/02 8:08:53 AM Hawaiian Standard Time From: <A HREF="mailto:PooolSide">PooolSide</A> To: <A HREF="mailto:WINN-D-@rootsweb.com">WINN-D-@rootsweb.com</A> Dear Fellow Winn Researchers aka Cuzzins: Becky suggested I put this out there for your consideration.
