Notes on Trav Windham: From John B. Windham's research on Travis Windham: ""Trav" Windham has been described as "one of the greatest cowmen Texas ever knew". It has been stated that the world's first rodeo occurred at Pecos City, Texas, in the early 1880's. A. T. "Trav" Windham was the "winner" of this, the first rodeo held in the United States. About five hundred people attended and were served "dinner on the ground" at this rodeo. "Trav" Windham worked for the Hash Knife Ranch which was located near Abilene, Texas, but later expanded their operations and in 1881 established a new ranch on the Pacos River north of Pacos City, Texas."

Notes:

Sam is supposedly buried in Homewood, ScotMS. In 1850, Sam and Leah were living with son, Andrew J. Windham. Leah BLAKE's (b. Jan 12, 1775 in SC) parents were John William BLAKE (b. c. 1750; d. Jan 22, 1781 in Camden Dist. SC) and Phanuel HORNSBY "Leah" or "Fanny" (b. Mar 30, 1751 in Jamestown, James City County, VA. Her parents were Leonard Hornsby and Elizabeth I. Wilson).  Leah Blake had two brothers: Thomas Early BLAKE (b. Nov 12, 1776) and John William BLAKE Jr. (b. Jan 10, 1781). This information is from a family bible belonging to Leonard Hornsby, printed 1756. It is not archived in a South Carolina library.  The identity of Sam B. Windham's father is one of the great Windham mysteries.  John B. Windham of Louisiana believes that Sam B. Windham's father was Eustace WINDHAM (b. c. 1725) who lived and died in Nottoway Parish, Southampton County, VA.  Eustace is the proven son of Edward WINDHAM (b. c. 1695).  Edward is the son of Rueben WINDHAM (b. c. 1670, d. 1745 in Nottoway Parish, Isle of Wight County, VA).  Though not proven, this theory seems the most likely, and John B. Windham is the top Windham researcher in our line. Hopefully DNA testing will help to shed some light on this family puzzle.

Windham and Eliza Sproals. There is a question as to whether or not J.D. ever married Eliza, or was James L. born out of wedlock. This may explain why he was living with his grandparents in 1850.   County/State Abbreviations: AngeTX - Angelina County, TX CallTX - Callahn County, TX ClarkMS - Clarke County, MS FairSC - Fairfield County, SC FallTX - Falls County, TX GranNM - Grant County, NM JoneMS - Jones County, MS KempMS - Kemper County, MS LaudMS - Lauderdale, MS MadiMS - Madison County, MS MobiAL - Mobile County, AL NacoTX - Nacogdoches County, TX NavaTX - Navarro County, TX NeshMS - Neshoba County, MS NewtMS - Newton County, MS ReevTX - Reeves County, TX SabiTX - Sabine County, TX ScotMS - Scott County, MS WilcAL - Wilcox County, AL   Page Sources: The Windham Connection book by John B.
