Note |
Philip
D.
Laird
wrote
an
informal
genealogical
article
about
the
Winder
family
of
Somerset
Co.,
Md. John Winder emigrated ca. 1650 to Maryland
and became a Judge in Somerset Co. A son, also named William
Winder, b.ca. 1710, also became a Judge in Somerset Co. A
Massey-Winder family link is indicated, but I have not found it. |
