Early Virginia Winfrey/Winfree Records


Following are some random tidbits of information about early Virginia Winfrey/Winfrees. I have made no connection yet between my Missouri/Kentucky Winfreys and the Virginia Winfreys, although I expect to link up at some point. Thus, this represents simply my "research notebook", and I hope it helps someone else.

Selected LDS IGI Records

Note: The "C" prefix for the film no. indicates the source is a birth or christening record extracted from a primary source in the LDS record extraction program. The "M" prefix also indicates the source is a marriage record extracted in the LDS record extraction program. I have grouped the records by possible family groups (speculation, of course).
