    2. Ken, Gloucester and Sarah are my ggggrandfather and mother. It is believed that one of them was Pamunkey Indian. Sarah left King William after Glouester died to be with Geroge Winn who lived in Natchez MS. I would be interested in any information you have found about them. Thanks, Paul

    3. Yes, Ferdinand the grandson of Gloucester, went to New Kent to live with the Chickahominies. He sold his last piece of land in 1848. About two miles from where I now live in King William. Henry Wheeley, who married Ann Nancy Winn, witnessed many of the deed transfers. I am tracing the Wheeley Name also. ALso, Polly Winn sold land to Ann Adams( I am an Adams). The band of Indians living in the vicinity of the Winn land, actually connecting the Winn land, was at one time known as the Adamstown band, now known as the Upper Mattaponi. If you can find a map of King William county, the land south and east of Central Garage (the crossroads of US 360 and State Route 30) was occupied by Indians. On an 1863 Civil War Map(Web Accessible) It is marked clearly on the map - "Indians". It is Up River from the Mattaponi Indian Reservation. Just south of the Mattaponi Reservation there is a church with a couple of Winn headstones. Ken JaPawynne@aol.com wrote:Ken, Gloucester and Sarah are my ggggrandfather and mother.
