Research Notes:
Mabel was living in an Orphanage and Dennis was a Ward of the state (Minnesota) in 1910 which makes sense with the passing of Mittie in 1908. The 1910 census indicates that John was a widow and boarding in a home in Hennepin, Minnesota. I am not sure what became of Marion, I did find a 1910 census for a Marion Winch that is residing in Plymouth, Hennepin, Minnesota as a hired boy, but both parents are listed as being born in Ireland so I am not sure of it's validity. ________________________________________
