FRANCIS WINSTEAD



   Francis Winstead applied for revolutionary pension while living in Hawkins

County, Tennessee, in 1832. He was born November 19, 1758, in Northumberland

County, Virginia. While residing in that County he volunteered in the fall of

1776 and served at various times under Captains John Crawley and George Eskridge

and Colonel Thomas Jones. A great part of the time he was stationed at Cherry

Point on the Potomac River to prevent the enemy from landing. He served until

some time in 1782. He moved with his family from Northumberland County,

Virginia, to Edgecomb County, North Carolina, in 1793. After living there about

twelve years he moved to Hawkins County, Tennessee. He was a Baptist minister.
