Wednesday's Child - Thomas J. Winstead


Thomas J. Winstead was born on December 19, 1889 to the marriage of Thomas Jefferson Winstead and Nettie Juanita Moore.  He was a brother to Berta A. Winstead Knight.

Thomas died on April 9, 1896 and is buried in the Old Pine Hill Cemetery in Sicily Island, Catahoula Parish, Louisiana.

"Our darling one hath gone before to greet us on the blissful shore."




Wednesday's Child will be a recurring post each Wednesday in remembrance of those who passed from this life before reaching the age of twenty.  If you have family members from Sicily Island or surrounding communities who died before reaching the age of twenty and would like to have them recognized on this blog, please email rootsfromthebayou@gmail.com.  Background information and photographs will be included in the remembrance posts.
