At one time, there was a website that carried a picture of his tombstone. The site also had some genealogy data. I beliefe that his wife was Priscella McKennie. Richard was born about 1750 and died Dec. 19, 1818. I think that Winnsboro, SC was named in his honor. Somewhere, I picked up: that he was the son of Minor Winn, Jr. and Mary Margaret O'Connor. Minor Winn Jr., son of John Minor Winn, b. abt. 1660, Westmoreland, VA, married Martha Ann Byrd. John M. Winn, son of John Winn and Elizabeth Minor. John Winn, son of Owen Winn and Grace Williams. There is so much speculation about Minor Winn, and his parentage, none of General Richard's ancestry may be true. BUT, there is a General Richard Winn of Revolutionary War era buried in Muary County, TN.
