• Notes

  Winston Echols & Nancy Burks Winston Echols was born in 1820 in Georgia to Samuel Echols and Elizabeth Wood. He migrated to Jefferson County, Albama before 1830, where he was married on July 24, 1839 to Nancy Burks, born in Georgia in 1826. The Echols were apparently a well-to-do Southern family with plantations and slaves, but it appears that Winston did not benefit from his family’s prior wealth, as he is listed as an illiterate laborer in Jonesboro, Alabama in 1850. Winston and Nancy had at least five children: William, Harvey, Critton, Caroline, and Samuel. Census records show that Winston was a farmer and resided in Jefferson County through at least 1880, the last known record for Winston and his wife.
