Playing around with census, looks like parents of Winnie, befor she was born.

1870 census Rockcastle Co, KY:

Gresham, William, 22, b KY - no land/personal 200
" Charity, 19, b KY
" William S., 69, b KY - land $7000/personal none shown

I can't seem to find William, Charity or Winnie on the 1880 census.

I checked the Rockcastle Co, KY GenWeb site, they have some early census records. Uriah Gresham shows up as early as 1820. On Rootsweb's World Connect some researchers show Uriah with a son William, could he be the elder William on the 1870 census???

1860 census Rockcastle Co, KY:

French, William, 40, b KY
" Martha, 40, b KY
" Malvinia, 18, b KY
" John, 17, b KY
" James P., 15, b KY
" Willis,13, b KY
" Charity, 11, b KY ********
" Elizabeth, 9, b KY
" William, 5, b KY
" Rebecca, 2, b KY

Maybe some of this will give you something new to work on.

Happy Hunting (^_^)
