An Excerpt from Down Winsor Way: A Family History and Geneaology by Vivian Toothaker Henry Winsor, a gardner on a duke's estate in Kislingbury, Northamptonshire, England, came to America about 1848 when he was about 36 years of age. The following year his wife and children arrived. The lived for a short time at Port Jervis, NY and about three years in Dunkirk, NY. they journeyed to the middlewest probably during the spring of 1854, settling near Dyersville, Delaware County, Iowa, where the lived until 1858-59. Their final move was to Jenkins Township, Mitchell County, Iowa. Henry was not afraid of hard work. He came to America to better his position in life, to be an independant farmer rather than work for others. He did not buy homestead land but chose land that had already been cleared for farming. No doubt there was still much work to be done on the land he purchased and in those days there was no machinery with which to do the work.
