I mistakenly stated his middle initial was N in my writeup of James' Civil War picture. Winston was born in Nelson Co. VA in 1810 the son of John Griffin JR & Patsy Ponton. His gradparents were John Griffin & Susannah Seay. He was bought to Anderson Co KY about 1819 and moved to Edgar Co IL about 1840. His 1st wife was Susan Lane who died in 1861 and shares this gravestone. Some researchers have her maiden as Sinclaire. His 2nd wife was Ann McKee Thompson. For more info see "The Descendents of John Griffin & Susannah Seay" in the Edgar Co IL Genealogy Library.
