Sherry (?) -

I just found your website and wanted to add what I have discovered about Christopher Fagenwinters. My research suggests his given name was Christoph Feigenwinter and that he was a Swiss soldier drafted into the German army and rented out to the British to fight in the American Revolution. He deserted in South Carolina and found his way to the German/Swiss community in Salisbury, NC. He had a second son born in 1792 also named Christopher, who fought in the War of 1812 under the name Christopher F. Winters, then at some point changed the spelling to Winder before migrating to the Republic of Texas in 1840. CF Winder was my third great grandfather. This has all been confirmed through several documents, including pages from a German language genealogy book sent to me by a distant Feigenwinter cousin in Switzerland, which shows Christoph Feigenwinter, born 1752, ?disappeared as a soldier?.

I have a very detailed tree on ancestry.com under the username Brian Hendrix, if you?re interested.

Sherry, That is my Sarah "Sally" Renfro also....looks like we may be related on both sides of the family. I haven't really done any research on Sarah "Sally" Lucinda yet...but I am sending you what I have on her husband, Henry. Is this what you have for Henry and Sarah also???

Henry Figin Winters
My 2nd great grandfather
Birth 1791 in Rowan, North Carolina, United States
Death 22 Dec 1845 in Tippah, Mississippi, United States
Henry went by the last name of Figgin Winters, variation of Feigenwinter from his father. But one story has his widow Sara applying for a pension for his War of 1812 service, and having to apply with the last name of Winters and Figgin as a middle name. From that point on Winters is listed as the family last name. KFergus 2/2/11

Regarding son of Henry and Sally, from Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Eastern Arkansas:

H. C. Winters is widely remembered as an old settler of Bedford Township. A native of Alabama, he is the eldest son of Henry and Sarah (Rinfrow) Winters, who came originally from North Carolina and Tennessee, respectively. Henry Winters went to Alabama in 1828 and settled in Morgan County, where he remained five years, going thence to Tippah County, Miss. He was twice married, and by his first wife had two boys, one of whom is living: Aaron, a resident of Pope County, Ark. Mr. Winters was married to the mother of our subject in 1828. They were the parents of six children, all of whom are still living: H. C., J. J. Thomas, William C., Mary E. (now Mrs. Harbinger) and Sarah J. (Mrs. Vandover "Vandiver"), all living in Texas excepting the first named. Mr. Winters was a soldier in the War of 1812, and died in 1852. Mrs. Winters was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and died in 1880. (submitted by KWFergus)

William Clift Winters

(2.Henry², 1.Christoph¹) was born on 4 Nov 1836 in Alabama; died on 27 Jun 1914 in Hamilton Co, Texas.

Other Events and Attributes:

Residence: Bef 1875, Langford Cove, Evant, Hamilton Co, Texas

Notes:

Other families who came early to the Cove were William Clift Winters, Tommy Winters, Sr., Billie Winters, Dr. Sawyer, D. W. White, W. N. White, Sam Enochs, J. L. Singleton, Alex Williams, Joseph Hardy Dixon, Dr. H. McNeill, Isaac W. Seale, R. M. Hill, John Carter, Frank Gholson, A. Wurts, Dr. Griggs, and W. D. Blackburn.

William Clift Winters and his first wife, Nancy M. (Adams) Winters were in Langford Cove in time to become charter members of Evant Methodist Church when it was established in 1875. After Nancy M. (Adams) Winters died 2 September, 1876, William Clift remembered his widowed neighbor, Harrett A. Garner Jones, back in Baldwyn, Prentiss, County, MS. Harrett?s husband, William Toliver Jones had not returned home after the Civil War. As Mr. Winters? loneliness increased, his remembrances of Harrett grew fonder. Mr. Winters rode his donkey (or mule) all the way to Baldwyn to marry Harrett about 1878. When Mr. Winters arrived in Baldwyn, he found that Harrett was no longer in Mississippi. She had gone to Texas with her two youngest children--Martha Ann Jones and James Henry Jones. William Clift was a determined man, so he rode his mule to Fannin County, TX, where he found Harriett (Garner) Jones and married her on June 27, 1878. [Harriett's first husband, William Toliver Jones had been a Confederate soldier in the 2nd Regiment, Mississippi Partisans. William T. Jones never returned home after the Civil War.] Mr. Winters brought his new bride to Langford Cove, and that is probably the reason her children who came to Texas also came to Hamilton County. Margaret Amanda Jones Grisham and her husband, James Lemuel Grisham, Sr. followed Harriett to Fannin County, arriving there about 1 September, 1878. James Lemuel & Margaret Amanda left Fannin County after June 1, 1880 and were at Blue Ridge in Hamilton County before July, 1880, when Blue Ridge Baptist Church was established. James H. Jones married Pernina Jane "Nina" Coker on 22 December, 1880, in Hamilton County, TX. Martha Ann Jones married Joseph Evans "Joe" Snider.

On Sunday evening, 30 May, 1882, James Henry "Jim" Jones was shot as he was going to the mountain to turn his horses into the pasture while his wife was on the front porch churning and holding their eight-month-old-son, William Charles Jones. Perry Langford and Ves Howard ambushed Jim and shot him from behind. They were tried for the Jones' murder in Coryell County. Howard was not convicted, but Perry Langford was convicted, sent to prison, and released only shortly before his (Perry's) death.

Until Perry and Ves were arrested, they with the Langford mob, continued to harass the family. All of the family--Pernina Jane "Nina" Coker Jones and her baby son, William Clift Winters, Harrett Garner (Jones) Winters, James Lemuel Grisham, Sr. and Margaret Amanda Jones Grisham, Martha Ann Jones Snider and Joseph Evans "Joe" Snider fortified the the Winter's house in which they stayed. At night they slept on the floor and stayed out of the moonlight lest the mob kill them also.

Members of the mob would shoot through the windows aiming at their beds. The mob also would beat on the walls with whips. According to Grisham legend, Perry Langford had an intense desire to kill any of Jim Jones? relatives.

Until after 1900 Hamilton County was ruled by mobs--the Gentry mob, the Langston mob, and others. Sheriffs were powerless to enforce the law.

Pernina Jane "Nina" Coker Jones and her little son lived with William Clift and Harrett Garner (Jones) Winters approximately four years before she married Dr. W. Hiram McNeill.
