As far as I can tell, my Winkle clan originated from Heinrich Winkle who sailed to Virginia in the 1700's.My cousin Roma Jane Kier has some of the best history of the family as our Winkle's intermarried with Kier's from Holland.
I think my tree is
Heinrich
Peter, buried near here near Mowrystown Ohio
George
Issac
George
Gerald
Charles Edward, which is me and now I have 8 grand children.
My line is mainly teachers and farmers.Grandpa dad and I were all chairmen of our school boards.
I taught school 31 years and am full time consulting and farming in sw Ohio, one hour east of Cincinnati.
I hope this helps you.The Winkle tree is wide, there were many families with 9-15 children.
