Karen Hall believes #17 is Harold Porter's wife and #24 their son, and #22 may be Hazel Grove Winesett, daughter of Piety & Lawrence. Confirmation anyone?
Hi! The purpose of this site is to provide a central repository of information about the members of the Wineset-Winesett-Winesette families and their near relatives, living and deceased. The Webmaster strives to list each and every member of our extended family, their spouses and children but needs help.
While this is primarily a genealogical site, it contains current information about living members of the Wineset-Winesett-Winesette family. the Webmaster continuously seeks additional information and corrections to the database. Because of the Webmaster's concerns about identity theft of living family members, not all information is available on this site where it is accessable to the general public.
The Webmaster will consider requests for additional information about a particular person on a case by case basis. Normally after the individual about whom the request concerns gives permission.
Every member of the family is important. The Webmaster want to know about each family member. No fact is insignificant. The Webmaster wants to know who, what, when and where about events involving family members. If there are pictures or written records, the Webmaster would appreciate copies. The Webmaster will return original pictures and documents after making a copy.
The Webmaster desires to honor the achievements of family members, however, he does not want to overlook any member of our extended family. Every Wineset-Winesett-Winesette has made some contribution. We are people of humble orgin. A sharecropper is just as important as a medical doctor or a judge. Wealth is not a consideration. Each family member has contributed in his or her own way.
You may have information which you consider trivial or insignificant. That is a false assumption. Every fact and every story is worthy of being recorded. We cannot know what will be most important in the end. One fact or story may provide the connection for a significant breakthrough in researching the family.
Our surname is variously spelled Wineset, Winesett, and Winesette. There are other variations such as Winset, Winsett, Wimsett, Wimsatt and Wynset.

about these families which probably came from Great Brittain
as early as the late 1600's. They were difinitely in Maryland
in the early 1700's. Some were in the Onslow area of North
Carolina by 1750, and soon after in Tennessee, Alabama and Missippi.
A group went from Maryland to Kentucky in the 1780's. A
group of North Carolina Winsetts and the related Jarman
family went to Tennessee before 1800. A fairly large
group was in Texas before the Civil War.
There are still some Winsetts in Great Brittain. The Webmaster attempted to make contact but was unsuccessful. It is unknown exactly when and why some of their ancestors emmigrated to America.
None Reported This Year.
