  • Notes 
    • Alice Winston was born to Edmund and Alice (Winston) Winston in Lynchburg, Virginia.
      She married Frederick A. Cabell in 1801 in Campbell County, Virginia. He was born December 13,1768 in Buckingham County. They had 6 children who survived into adulthood: Mary Mildred, born January 15, 1802, married John Horsley, died March 3, 1880, 7 children, all with issue; Frederick Mortimer, born December 15, 1802, married Clara Hawes Coleman March 11, 1846 in Nelson County, died 1873, 8 children; Edmund Winston, born July 12, 1808, married E. Wright, 3 children; Dr. Clifford, born August 17, 1810, married Margaret C. Anthony December 5, 1833, in Lynchburg, died September 18, 1871, 4 children; Virginia Paulina, born July 15, 1812, married 11 Oct 1831 John Ware Mosby, died May 23, 1874, 1 child; Lewis Warrington, born June 12, 1814, married A. M. Perkins, 9 children.
      He was described in The Cabells And Their Kin by Alexander Brown as devoted β€œto business in early manhood. He was remarkable for energy and perseverance, honesty and integrity, and made nearly all of a large fortune through his own efforts, by a long course of industry and economy, getting nothing from his father's estate till he did not need it. His father bequeathed to him the estate on the north side of James River, just above Buffalo station, known as "Struman." He also acquired, in the course of time, a large part of his father's estate by purchase from the other heirs, β€” "Green Hill," with all the lands attached thereto, including the farm below, now known as " Elm Cottage," with Hughes' (now Norwood) Island, opposite, from his brothers; and after the death of his sister, Paulina, he bought the " Fork field " estate, in the fork of Tye and James rivers, from her executors.” He was living in Nelson County when the 1810 and 1820 censuses were taken and in Buckingham County in the 1830 and 1840 censuses.
      Alice died in 1814, soon after the birth of her youngest child. Frederick never remarried and died February 15, 1841 and was buried on his farm. [3, 4]
