He was married in 1861 to Miss Emeline Terwilliger, by whom his son, Elwyn, was born. The mother died in 1879. Mr. Winchell's second wife was Mrs. Celia Schutt. Jacob Winchell, father of our subject, was born at Olive in 1797. He was a farmer and old-school Baptist preacher, and was the eldest son of Peter Winchell, who was the first of this family born in Ulster County. The ancestry of this family dates to Robert Winchell, who was born in England and came to America in 1634.

BIOGRAPHICAL.


ALONZO E. WINNE, of the firm of A. E. & J. S. Winne, proprietors of the "Eagle Hotel," was born in the town of Shandaken, Ulster County, N. Y., in 1847. After finishing his studies at the Kingston Academy, he was employed as civil engineer on the U. & D. Railroad. In 1871 Mr. Winne engaged in the hotel busi- ness at Mount Pleasant, where he remained two years, when he accepted the position of keeper at the County Poorhouse. He conducted for four years the Woodstock House, at Woodstock, N. Y., and has been connected with the Eagle Hotel, Kingston, since 1877, in which time it has become one of the most popular and famous hostelries in the Hudson valley.


Mr. Winne has been identified with the Masonic fraternity for twenty-six years, including the Shrine and Cypress Temple of Albany. He married Miss Emma E. Bryant of Delaware County.


Davis Winne, father of our subject, was a very prominent citizen of Shandaken township, where he was born July 18, 1818. He was engaged at different times in farming, lumbering, railroading and general trade. He took an important part in the development and upbuilding of his township. He served three terms as Su- pervisor of the town of Shandaken, and from 1861 to 1864 as Sheriff of Ulster County. He was elected to the State Legislature in 1876, and again in 1886. During the Civil War Mr. Winne was Captain of a company of ninety men under the command of Colonel Pratt, in the Twentieth New York Regiment. He was also actively engaged in the first draft of the war, which was made during his term of office as Sheriff. He was a director of the Ulster County Savings Institution, which he helped to reorganize in 1891, and served continuously as a director of the U. &. D. R. R. since its organization in 1867. Mr. Winne held the respect and confidence of his fellow-citizens in an unusual degree, and filled the duties of his various high positions with entire satisfaction.


DANIEL T. WINTER was born in Greene County, New York, in 1844, and obtained his education at the schools of his native place. When Civil War was declared Mr. Winter enlisted in Company K, Fourth N. Y. Cavalry, serving three years. In 1866 he located in Pine Hill, Ulster County, and engaged in the butcher business, conducting a meat market nine years. In 1884 he embarked in the hotel business, building the Rip Van Winkle House, which he conducted six years. In 1890 he built the Winterton, and has conducted it successfully since that time.


Mr. Winter is affiliated with Margaretville Lodge No. 386, F. & A. M .; Franklin Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and the G. A. R. In 1867 he was united in marriage to Miss Susan Thompson of Pine Hill, and they have two children, Elizabeth and Daniel T., Jr.


EDWARD WINTER, the subject of this sketch, was born at Port Jervis, New York, April 10, 1835, and a year later removed with his parents to Rondout. In 1860 he established at Kingston a general book and stationery business. He intro- duced the telegraph business in 1860, and with his brother built and owned the Bell Telephone Exchange of the city and county, which they controlled for many years, selling out to the Hudson River Telephone Company. About 1875 Mr. Winter

fitted up his piano warerooms, which he has since conducted on a large scale in connection with the book and stationery business, and handles the most celebrated pianos made in America. He also owns and operates the transfer and express business established by him in 1867.


His father, Archibald Winter, was a native of Brentwood, England. Born in 1808, he came to America in 1834, and died in 1855. His mother was Ann Wood, also a native of England. Mr. Winter married Emma L. Lynch of Newark, N. J., and six children have blessed this union, Charles A., William Henry, Anna B., Ed- ward N., Emma L. and George A.


Mr. Winter has been warden of the Episcopal Church for a number of years. He is one of Kingston's most respected citizens, his life demonstrating what can be accomplished through diligent effort and earnest purpose.


NOAH WOLVEN .- With the death of Noah Wolven, which occurred November 15, 1904, Ulster County lost one of its most useful and widely known citizens. Born at Saugerties, July 25, 1835, he early in life embarked in the business of quarrying bluestone and continued in the business for upwards of two decades. Always an active Republican, he was appointed Postmaster of Kingston by President Harrison in 1890, serving four years. In 1891 he established the dry goods business which is now conducted by his son William.


Mr. Wolven, as the name implies, was of German descent, his ancestors coming from Heidelberg, Germany, about 1730. He was married in 1865 to Sarah E. Freer, whose forefathers were among the pioneer settlers in New Paltz.


His son William, who has succeeded him, was born in Kingston, December 1, 1871, and obtained his education at the Kingston Academy and Albany Business College. In 1895 he joined his father in the management of the store. He is a member of the Masonic Order and the Kingston Club, and one of the directors of the Kingston National Bank.


LEWIS H. WOOLSEY, President of the New Paltz Savings Bank, was born in New Paltz, March 19, 1837. He attended the educational institutions of his native village, and has been engaged in farming the greater portion of his life, devoting his attention, more particularly, to fruit raising for the past twenty years.


Mr. Woolsey has served as trustee of the village, and since 1886 has been a director and on the Investigating Committee of the New Paltz Savings Bank. In 1903 he was chosen President of that institution. Mr. Woolsey has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Hannah M. LeFevre. For his second wife he chose Miss Maria Ann Booth. His children are Gertrude, now deceased, Grace, Ruth, Edna, Lulu May and Leon Harold.


Mr. Woolsey traces his ancestry to George Woolsey, born October 27, 1610, whose grandfather was a near relative of the distinguished Cardinal Woolsey.


CHARLES YOUNG, one of the most progressive fruit growers of Marlborough township, was born in Cedar Cliff, New York, in 1848. After obtaining a liberal education he aided his father on the fruit farm and in their dock business, which


7II


BIOGRAPHICAL.


consisted in dealing in coal and feed, and acting as agent for the Romer & Tremper and the Cornell Steamboat Companies, until 1891, when the dock was leased. Mr. Young then confined his efforts to fruit growing, in which he has been very successful, having over one hundred acres now under cultivation.


In 1882 Mr. Young married Marion A. Peck of Troy, N. Y. They have three children, Ralph P., William C. and Adelaide T.


Mr. Young's ancestors were among the early settlers of Ulster. His great-grand- father, John Young, came to America from England in 1756, and in 1760 located in the town of Marlborough. Edward Young, his grandfather, was born there in 1780, and William C. Young, father of our subject, was born on the old homestead, August 20, 1815. In 1845 he married Althea Harcourt, and they had five children. 3.


GEORGE A. YOUNG has been a resident of the village of Marlborough, where he conducts a grist-mill, since 1902. Mr. Young was born in Chenango County, New York, January 30, 1849. Previous to locating in Marlborough he was en- gaged in the flour and feed business for some twenty-five years at Oneonta and Hobart, New York.


Mr. Young married Miss Louise Elwell of Otsego County, and they have five children, four daughters and one son. He is prominently identified with the Masonic fraternity, and was for three years Master of St. Andrew's Lodge No. 239, at Hobart. He is also a member of the Knights of Pythias and the I. O. O. F. Mr. Young was a member of the Third Separate Company, National Guards, at Oneonta, N. Y., for nine years, in which he was Second Sergeant.


Joseph Young, great-grandfather of our subject, was a native of Stamford, Conn., and located in Otsego County in 1783. He served in defense of his country in the War of 1812. Mr. Young's ancestors on his maternal side were also among the early settlers of the State and encountered many perils from the hostile Indian tribes.


GEORGE YOUNG of Ellenville, was born in Sullivan County, June 26, 1841. He attended local schools and was engaged in farming and lumbering up to 1872, when he came to Ulster County and started a foundry and machine shop in Ellenville, and the following year engaged in the paper manufacturing business in Napanoch, which he has since continued, employing from twenty to thirty hands.


In 1886 Mr. Young was elected Sheriff of Ulster County. His family consists of wife, formerly Miss Sarah Schoonmaker, a daughter of Andrew Schoonmaker, and two sons, Chester, born February 8, 1877, a graduate of Cornell University, Class of 1898, with degree of B. S. Chester married Jennie Devine, a daughter of Dwight Devine, Esq., of Ellenville, and they have one son, George Chandler.


George Young, Jr., born August 24, 1878, is also a graduate of Cornell Uni- versity, Class of 1900, B. A. R. George married Helen D. Binkard of Brooklyn, N. Y., who was also a graduate of Cornell University of the same class and degree.


WILLIAM ZEIGLER, of Saugerties, was born in New York City, April 3, 1868. When quite young he came with his parents to Saugerties, and for a time attended

THE COUNTY OF ULSTER.


the Academy. After leaving school he assisted his father, Louis Zeigler, in their business, eventually succeeding him. This business his father established in 1865, and it is perhaps the most finely appointed liquor establishment in the State outside of New York City and Buffalo. It is essentially a gentlemen's resort and caters exclusively to the better class of Saugerties's citizens.


Mr. Zeigler has been a member of the Village Board for four terms, and has also served as Chief of the Fire Department. His family consists of three daughters and one son, namely, Caroline Blanch, Jennie, Louise and William.


DANIEL H. ZOLLER was born in Wilbur, Ulster County, N. Y., in 1859. He obtained his education at the public schools and Ulster Academy, and in 1890 en- gaged in the coal business at Wilbur. Five years later he added a grain and grocery establishment, and in 1897 purchased the James cement plant and trans- formed it into an ice storehouse, with a capacity of ten thousand tons, all of which is marketed in New York. Mr. Zoller has been identified with the Re- publican party since reaching his majority, and for many years has been a member of the Republican County Committee. He has frequently been tendered, but has always declined, the nomination to public office. He was one of the organizers and deacons of the English Lutheran Church of Rondout, and is trustee of the Wilbur Sunday School Union. He was united in marriage to Miss Ella Doran of Wilbur, and they have four children, Catherine, Frederick J., Evaline and Ella. Daniel Zoller, father of our subject, came from Germany and located in Wilbur in 1848, and engaged in the mercantile business. His mother, Salome (Gruikway) was a native of France.
