to home page. Douglas and Daniel Winchester were born somewhere in Virgina
they latter were in Carrabus NC and then in Mecklenberg. Both
reportedly served in the Rev War and Daniels pension records
show him as a Private.
Douglas stayed in Mecklenberg, NC where he died 1793.
There are refernces to A William Winchester that seem to fit Douglas
and it is possible that he was William Douglas as the names
William appears frequently in the family.
Daniel went to Tn in 1815 and moved a number of times he finally
settled in Hardin County where he applied for his pension in 1832.
Researchers show Daniels wife as Rosanna Matthews sister of
Sarah Matthews however, his wifes application for his pension
gives a statment from a woman who says Rosanna's last name was
Ashley.
Parents have been listed as William Winchester and Sarah Keziah
but that has not been proven.
Also indication that a John Winchester may have been the father of
Daniel and Douglas I have many more names in the Winchester Family
this is just a few of the primary names email me if you are looking
for a specific Winchester I may have it.
**NOTE I have made some changes in the descendents of Douglas and
Daniel in an effort to make if more readable. I can see it was a
bit confusing but I am working on it!
