Thanks for your reply, but I think we have different Milly Winkfields here. My Milly was related to the Parsons and from Gonzales County. it does not appear that she ever lived anywhere else in Texas.

Again, thanks for your reply.

Thanks for the information. I have John Winkfields tree but could not figure out Milly. I knew nothing about Bill Williams or Richard Hill. I am researching the winkfields, Jones, Sanders, Mckinnon (Kennon, Colemans, Sauls and others.

What can I help you with?

Do you know if anyone in this family had a child,uncle, relative named Jett Winkfield? He was my great, great grandfather and through paperwork can't prove where he or his family (before my great great grandmother) lived?

My grandfather/family was a Wink(g)field of Wilkes county.

Well, turns out that Wink, Win, Wingfield are all of the same descent. We are apart of the Maria Wingfields clan that was the ruler (albeit) horrible leader of Jamestown. Ergo the name changes. There are scattered Winkfields all over Georgia just not sure how they got there. Even in Wilkes they are spread pretty far apart.

Hello, Hello, Hello!!! I was so glad to see you write what I am thinking. That is, Winkfield, may be Wingfield. In looking at British records there are many Wingfields but I don't see Winkfields. Maybe I am not looking in the right places. It seems to me that in the early American records, the name was written both ways. I have seen that a Bryant Winkfield was the father of Elizabeth Winkfield Shropshire Stonehouse, but I haven't seen a document that shows that to be true. In fact, I have never seen a document of Bryant Winkfield. If you know of one, please let me know. I would love to see it. Good luck on your search for family members. Maybe there is a Winkfield/Wingfield DNA group at familytreedna.com If there is one maybe that could help you out. Good luck, Jan

Hello... I am descended from St John Shropshire by his daughter, Elizabeth, and possibly his first wife plus I also descended from St John Shropshire and his wife, Elizabeth Winkfield Shropshire, by their son, Winkfield. I guess I am doubly blessed... Since St John Shropshire's Estate Papers stated that Elizabeth was his only daughter and later she was not named as an heir of Elizabeth Winkfield Shropshire, so I surmise that St John Shropshire may have had two wives... Do you know where Bryant Winkfield's estate records are located? Many thanks for any assistance you can give me. Jan

Is this email address still good. Where does your family come from. The Winkfield's from Columbus, Ohio came from Washington, Wilkes County Georgia.

George & Orrie Wingfield of Wilkes County Georgia

Trying to connect the dots. Looking for information on one named George Wingfield and Orrie Wingfield. According to the 1900 Census he was born around 1840. He is listed again in the 1920 census as a widow.

I'm assuming George Wingfield is the father of Preston Winkfield. Preston Winkfield was born in Wilkes County and died in Ohio in 1976. Preston's death certificate list father as George Winkfield and mother as Orrie Walton.

I am trying to find descendants of David Winkfield possibly of Maryland or Virginia. He married a Susan Besore about 1842.

In the 1850 census he is living in Franklin County, PA with his father-in-law, David Besore. I have only found 2 sons for sure, a Jacob (married Anna Belle Acker) and a George (married Hannah Chronister), both born in Pennsylvania. Jacob & George may have had a sister named Katie who married a George Washington Pentz in Pennsylvania and one named Christiana who married a Jacob or David Carbaugh.

Family folklore says he owned a plantation (and slaves) in Virginia and that he breed and raced Trotting Horses. He supposedly enlisted in the Civil War for the South, but I can find no support for this. Supposedly some of his freed slaves moved to Ohio after the Civil War.

Is anyone out there related to this family? Please contact me at digginupmypast@gmail.com

My Winkfield relatives are from England. Elizabeth Winkfield married Saint John Shropshire. She was born 1663 and died December 1, 1742. Her father was Bryant Winkfield. She had a son named Winkfield Shropshire. Saint John and Elizabeth came to America before 1694 to Gloucester Co. Va. Then moved to Westmoreland Co. Va. He was a prominent cleryman in the Anglican church. He graduated from Oxford and was ordained in Winchester Cathedral. I know that this info is probably a long way off from where you are starting but you may want to keep it on file. It may be helpful in the future.

Looking for distant relatives of Preston Winkfield. Preston Winkfield was born in Washington, GA around 1888. His father's name was George Winkfield. After that I'm lost. Please help connect the dots. Thanks.
