Notes On Edward Winn (Jr.)

Information is based on the following sources:

NOTE:

According to Middlesex County Abstracts Court files 1649-1675 http://www.newenglandancestors.org/research/database/Middlesex_MA/default.asp on 6/12/1670 Edward Winn testified in court on inquest considering Henry Simmonds and was age 71 (MCA 2:103). On 6/23/1670 Edward Winn on a jury of inquest on Samuel Converse and gave his age as 70 (MCA 2:96). Therefore the birth date of Edward Winn (Jr.) would not be 1605 as Rootsweb source indicates if he was 70/71 in 1670 if these are the same Edward Winn. SOURCE: Janice Graves back to top
