Notes
- "Essie (Christian) Walkup is reported as believing that Nell Jenkins married a Jim Winters (probably of Cass County, Texas), one of several brothers including Troy Winters."
-- Harold Christian, "Jenkins Family History," http://objgenealogy.com/articles/josephsanfordjenkinshistory.pdf, p 3
No further information has been found on a Troy Winter/Winters.
There is a Troy Winter who was born in 1870. He is buried in the Ashland cemetery, in Pittsburg County, Oklahoma. This appears to be a memebr of the ame Winter clan that moved into Indian Territory from Cass County, Texas, along with Jenkins and Christian families at the end of the 19th century. The memorial for this Troy Winter on Find a Grave reports no parents. It is possible the Essie Christian confused the generational relationship of Troy Winter, whom she reported as a brother of Jim.

-------------------------------
A Mary E Winter is buried in the same cemetery, who matches the Mary E Griffin reported by several genealogies as the wife of James G Winter. No burial for James is linked to this memorial for Mary or to the one for Troy. This Troy Winter is of an appropriate age to be the son of Mary E Winter, buried in this same cemetery. The only other Winters with memorials on Find a Grave in Ashland Cemtery is the wife and child of this Troy Winter. It appears this is the son of Daniel and Mary.
One problem, howsver, is that the birth date reported on the grave for Troy Winter is 4 June 1870. The census was taken in July 1870 and reports no infant or other child named Troy for the parents James G and Mary WInter. The youngest child in the household is Melvey, age 1.
