Notes
a. Note:   Phillips, Franklin Co., ME Vital/Town Records 1813-1891 (GSU MF#0011744 ). Stephen's marriage is recorded in Phillips Town Record of Marriages 1828-1850, p. 9). Sherianne Valdez verified through the Phillips, Maine Historical Society the marriage intentions of Stephen Winslow and Nancy Howard February 15, 1830 and again in April 30, 1830 (the marriage date therefore needs verification). The marriage of Stephen Winslow and Nancy Howard is also verified by Dan Earl's review of the death certificate of son Elijah "Lige" Winslow.
  Stephen Winslow's burial is recorded on a List of Grave/Plot Nos. in Kingsburg Cemetery (photocopy in possession of Daniel R. Earl).
  Stephen Winslow was a Tax Collector for 6th R.D. Dist. in Monroe, Wisconsin (1862), Judge of Election in Friend, Nebraska on 6 Nov 1871.
  A copy of his personal ledger is in possession of A.T. Winslow family. Another source is a manuscript written by Elma Winslow Silvear, "The Winslow Family History and Comical Incidents" (Aptos, CA: not published, 1959), 12, 15 (copies in possession of Daniel R. Earl, Douglas Detling and Sherianne Valdez Killion). There are errors (chiefly her speculations about the connection to the Mayflower Winslows), but this document is otherwise useful. Dan Earl has faithfully reproduced it from its original form (some pages are missing from the original documents and we have been unable to locate them).
  After the 1870 Census, Stephen Winslow and some of his relatives migrated to Nebraska, part of a movement of thousands to the State, which experienced a population increase from 123,000 people in 1870 to more than 450,000 in 1880. First organized as a territory in 1854, the first Federal census was conducted there in 1860, and the Union Pacific Railroad built across the area in 1865. See James Clifton Olson, History of Nebraska (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1966), p. 154.
  Friend, in 2010 a community of 1,027 people, is located on Route 6, 12 miles south of I-80 in Southeast Nebraska's Saline County. Farming and livestock are its principal economic activities. Friendville was founded in 1870 by Mr. Charles E. Friend. In 1869 he left his home in Illinois and in the spring of 1870 he homesteaded the land where Friend is now located. He worked in Lincoln as a store clerk but later in 1870 he took an assortment of dry goods and returned to his hometown where he established and operated a flourishing dry goods store for many years. The Burlington and Missouri River Railroad reached Friend in 1871. The town at that time was no more than the homestead of Charles E. Friend. The government established a post office naming Mr. Friend as its first postmaster. He generously donated land for a school and church.
  The Winslows settled in Friend, Saline Co., Nebraska, where Stephen Winslow was an election judge in 1871.
  The year of 1873 was one of rapid growth. Work was completed on the railroad station and it was renamed "Friend" by the railroad. The town was surveyed and settlement began to take the shape of a frontier town. Fifty-six acres of Charles Friend's land was laid out on a square containing 16 square blocks. Trees were planted on most of the lots. Mr. Bigford opened a blacksmith shop, and flour mills were erected on Turkey Creek because of its water power. Late in 1873 Charles Fischer built a one-story hotel. The boom continued and the population increased. Several stores and a lumberyard were opened.
  Stephen Winslow's mother, Elizabeth Williams Winslow died in Friend in 1876, and a few months later his grandson Ernest Deldine Winslow was born there to daughter Elizabeth.
  Sometime after 1882, when another grandson, Stephen, was born, and 1885, the Winslows were on the move again, this time to California. The family came by railroad to California, but exactly which route was taken is not known. One could reach the Central Valley of California by rail from Sacramento or from Los Angeles in those years. When Stephen's daughter Elizabeth died in Kingsburg, Fresno Co., California, in 1925, her obituary referred to her as a 40-year resident of Fresno County.
