Jean: Good to hear from a neighbor cousin. For what it is worth here
is my line down from John/Jon. John/Jon, Conrad, Jonathan, Sarah
"Sally", John Winans Clark, Phoebe Clark Dement, Asa Dement, Daisy
Dement Gandy, Virgie Gandy Preston, and then me. If you would like I
can send you a chart but it is much too long to send via e-mail (77
pages). Where in Northern California are you living? I am in Vista
some 40 miles north of San Diego. I (we) have family in Davis and Los
Osos, Reno and also in Salem, Oregon. I have never heard of a Winans
gathering in California, or anywhere else for that matter! If you
want a chart I would need your snail mail address. Wayne
