WINDHAM


There was a Windham family living in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana by around 1820. Two brothers of this family were Moses Windham and William Windham.

My ancestor was Moses Windham, born ca. 1805-1816. He married December 20, 1839 in Saint Landry Parish, Louisiana to Jeanne (Jane) Bass, daughter of Moses Bass. It is possible Moses Windham was married previously, but this cannot be proven at this point. Moses Windham had the following known children born in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana:

Moses Windham was dead before 1850 and his widow remarried to a Daniel Perkins. Jeanne Bass died in Calcasieu Parish after 1870.

My ancestor, Harriett Windham, married about 1870 to Amos Stanley. Harriett Windham Stanley died in Lunita, Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana on March 24, 1923.
