JAMES ROBERT WINCH

Rev. W. O. Johnson conducted funeral services Sunday afternoon at 1:30 at the home and 2:00 o'clock at the Truman Baptist Church for James Robert Winch who died at his home last Friday following a lingering illness from cancer. Burial was at Nashville cemetery.
James Robert Winch son of James and Elsie Winch, was born on may 28th, 1865 in Nashville township, and passed away at his home in Truman at 11:30 a. m. April 26, 1940 after a lingering illness of cancer at the age of 74 years, 10 months and 28 days.
On December 22, 1888, he was united in marriage to Cora Adelia Herrick, at the bride's home in Nashville township by Rev. W,. Bacon, an uncle of Mrs. Winch. To this union were born twelve children, nine of whom survived their father, namely Lee, Burt, Elsie (Mrs. Elmer Sackett), Jay, Orrie, all of Truman, Ina (Mrs. Roy Sugar) of Donaldson, Everett, Paul and Robert also of Truman. One daughter and two sons died in infancy. After their marriage they farmed in Nashville and later near Amboy until Mr. Winch became lineman for the telephone company and they took charge of
the central office at Nashville Center. In 1918 they moved to Truman, where Mr. Winch became lineman for the local telephone company and continued until his retirement.
When a young man he united with the Baptist Church at Nashville and in 1918 when they moved to town, he united with the Community Baptist Church in Truman, where he was elected to the board as deacon of this church until the time of his death, a period of over 20 years. Shortly after moving to town he also became custodian of the church building and served faithfully and well in that capacity until illness made him give up that work a little over a year ago. He was a member of the Odd Fellows Lodge for a number of years while the lodge at Truman was in existence and served in various offices in that lodge. He will be missed greatly by his many friends in Truman, and by his church where he served so long and faithfully. Leaving to mourn his passing besides his widow and nine children, are 23 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren, 1 brother Wally Winch of Bemidji, one sister, Mrs. Anna Schribner of Staples and one half brother, John Winch of Truman. Besides these there are a large number of neices and nephews, many other more distant relatives and a host of friends.

Hello,
I may have some family history you would be interested in. Recently my sister and I have taken over tracing our mothers family tree. Her name was Betty Anne Winch, Ehlers, 1931-1992, her father was Paul Winch, (who is still living at the age of 101) and his father and mother were James R. Winch and Cora A. Herrick. This info we got from our mother's notes. Today we were at the Nashville Cemetary in Martin County Minnesota and found they're grave sites, James R. Winch was born in 1865 and died in 1940. Cora A. Winch was born in 1870 and died in 1950. Cora A.'s maiden name was Herrick and her father was Orrin S. Herrick born Jan 30th, 1842 from Piscataquis county, Parkman Maine. Her mothers name was Cordelia Bacon, born Oct. 21, 1844 from Mount Morris New York, Livingstone county, and died June 13, 1914. There was another stone next to James and Cora's we believe to be their son, but will have to do some checking but here is the name on it: Orrin J. Winch 1896-1981. We think Orrin for her father and the J. could stand for James??
We also Found James R. Winchs brother Albert Winch born 1841, died Feb. 10th 1887 and his wife Hattie Winch born 1848 and died 1927.

Another brother George H. Winch Born 1873 died 1963, married to Mamie C. ( we don't know the last name, born 1880-1964.

We also found variety of other Winch's also, listed below:

Anna Winch Wife of O.E. Winch ( but no stone was found for him) Born May 3,1876, died Jan. 30 1911.

James Winch 3 days old JUne 28 1903.
Alice Winch 10 days old sept. 22, 1905 ( both these names were on the same stone)
We believe them to be a brother and sister of our grandfather Paul Winch.

Doris Leona Daughter of Lee H. and H.L. Winch born May 2, died May 3, 1914.
Possibly another bother of Paul, but no stone for them was found.

Bert W. Winch 1892-1960 Wife Emma B. Winch 1897-1955, Marvel Winch 1920-1932.
(all on one stone) Another brother of Paul.

Preston Jay Winch Cpl US Army Korea Mar 31, 1930-Jan. 22,1999.

Eugenia "Jean" Winch 1931- , Berten "Bertie" Winch 1928-1992 Children, Dale and Bruce Winch.

Alice Winch, Masters, 1910-1985 (my Aunt) Everette Winch 1899-1979 (my uncle)

Paul Winch 1901- ( my granfather) Eva Winch, Masters, 1912-1991 ( my grandmother)
( on another note of interest Paul and Everette married sisters )

Paul Winch's bothers and sisters sorry we dont know the correct order but this is the order our mother had written them in:
Martin
Alice ( died when 10 days old see above)
James (died when 3 days old see above)
Bert 1892-1960 Married Emma 1897-1955
Ora (twin)
Jay (twin)
Everette 1899-1979
Paul 1901-
Robert
Elsie
Lee H.

Paul Winch Married Eva Masters July 18, 1901
their children are:
Myrtle Dela Winch born Aug. 25, 1928
Betty Anne Winch Born July 1, 1931
Paul Jr. Winch (will get this date to you as it seems my sister didn't give it to me)
Bill Winch Born Dec. 12, 1938 (twin)
Bonnie Winch born Dec. 12, 1938 died Jan 29 1940 (Bill's Twin)

I'll let you digest this I do have more info concerning who Paul's children married and etc. but I'll let you decide if you want it or not.

I was verry happy to find your info on the net it was very very helpful. Thanks for doing it ( just in case no ones told you that yet :) )

Enjoy the info hope you like it.
