CORNELIA E. WINDIATE cemetery #44 DEATH COMES TO MRS. T. WINDIATE, PIONEER RESIDENT Death Sudden and Shock to Friends, Mrs. Windiate Having Been Witness in Court on Tuesday. Here 60 Years Stricken late yesterday, Mrs. Cornelia W. Windiate, widow of the late Thomas Windiate, and one of the pioneer women of the city, survived but a few hours, death coming to her at an early hour this morning. Though Mrs. Windiate suffered a severe illness last winter while visiting in the South and had never fully recovered, she was up and about up to within a short time of her death, the announcement of which will be a great shock to friends. Mrs. Windiate was down town Tuesday when she appeared as a witness in circuit court in a case in which she was interested. She returned home late in the day and suffered an attack of illness but had apparently recovered yesterday and spent the day with her daughter, Mrs. Payne of Oil City, who was visiting here. Last evening she was again taken ill and was under care of a physician and early this morning passed away. For sixty years Mrs. Windiate had been a resident of this city. She was born at Trout River, near Malone, N.Y. Dec. 19, 1835 and was married to Mr. Windiate at Pontiac, Mich., Nov. 13, 1851. The couple removed here and Mrs. Windiate had since made her residence in the city. Mr. Windiate was for a long term of years proprietor of the Windiate House, in early days the leading hotel of the city. Mr. Windiate died six years ago. Mrs. Windiate was a life-long member of the Episcopal church and up to the time of her death took an active interest in the church in which her son, Thomas Windiate, is arch-deacon at Nashville, Tenn.

THOMAS WINDIATE (d. 1911) cemetery #44 DEATH ENDS LONG LIFE OF T. WINDIATE One of City's Oldest Pioneers summoned to His Final Rest. LAST CHARTER MEMBER OF MASONS Thomas Windiate one of the oldest pioneers settlers of Manitowoc city and county, the only surviving charter member of the Masonic lodge in this city and a man who was identified more prominently with early day business and commercial life of Manitowoc than perhaps any other, died at 4 o'clock this morning at the family home 834 N. Eighth street. Mr. Windiate who was 84 years of age had been in failing health for more than a year and for several months past had been confined to his home. However despite his illness and advanced age, Mr. Windiate retained his faculties up to the very close of his life. Mr. Windiate who had been a resident of Manitowoc for fifty-six years was a native of England born at Sherborne, St. John Hampshire on January 16, 1827. He came to the Country with his parents when nine years old occupying the customary time of those days six weeks in crossing. The family settled at Pontiac, Mich and was an unuaually large one, numbering twenty children. When quite young he married Cornelia Elizabeth Wallis and they together removed to Manitowoc in the year 1855. Mr. Windiate bought the old National Hotel then located just east of the present Windiate Hotel, and later he erected during the War, the hostelry so well known for many years as the Windiate House and which entertained many leading men of the country as guests, and where stopped, in the early days, many of the leading citizens of the city, long since passed away. He began a number of the leading businesses of the city. He build (sic) for the Government the original harbor piers. He also built the North Side High School building and was engaged in the ship building business and constructed many prominent boats launched between the years 1879 and 1880 among them the David Vance which was the first to make the trip from Lake Michigan to Europe, the Cornelia B. Windiate, one of the noted wrecks that went down on Lake Michigan with all on board and no trace of her was ever found. He conducted the leading express and stage lines entering Manitowoc before the construction of the railroad, and was the leading spirit that obtained the location of the original dry docks and elevator at Manitowoc, and helped procure the first railroad, and was engaged in no less than five or six lines of business at the same time. He was the only living charter member of the Masonic Lodge of Manitowoc, and was a great lover of his family and home. He was an original character and a self-made man, sturdy, honest, modest and retiring and with all the prominent parts he took in building the city and county, it is rather remarkable that he never held nor convassed for an office. He was original in his sayings, and some of his expressions have become by-words among his friends. Mr. Windaite continued the management of the Windiate Hotel on York street for a long term of years and up to within a comparatively short time ago, he made his home there, removing to a private residence only when forced to do so by ill health. He was a familiar figure about the city and was perhaps one of the best known residents of the county by reason of his long residence and his prominence in early days. The death of Mr. Windiate takes a man who, perhaps more than any other individual, contributed to the early developmentand growth of the city and gave to Manitowoc the foundation upon which its future was builded. His connection with varied industries and commercial enterprises of early days made him an important part of the city's life in those days and appreciated. Mr. Windiate was known throughout the city and was esteemed by a large circle of acquaintances. His widow and five children survive him, Mrs. Herbert L. Markham, Rev. Archdeacon Thomas D. Windiate of Tennessee, Mrs. Hnery Paine of Oil City, Pa., Mrs. Gustav A. Nyhagen and Mr. Burt Wallis Windiate. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Tuesday, April 25, 1911 P.1 ******** [cause: exhaustion]

Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, July 30, 1915, Page 6 ******** (Wife is Sophia on the 1910 census) ******** COURT AWARDS WIDOW $3,760 ON CLAIM IN ESTATE Judge Chloupek Holds Estate of Late R. Winklemiller Indebted for Money Loaned Husband by Wife A judgement for $3,760 was given by Judge Chloupek in probate court in favor of Mrs. R. Winkelmiller, widow of the late Richard Winklemiller of Two Rivers, on a claim of $2,000 filed by the widow against the estate for monies she said she had loaned her husband. The judgment represents the principal of the claim, $2,000, with interest at 6 per cent for fourteen years on the amount. Notice of appeal has been filed by children of Mrs. Winkelmiller who contested the claim against the estate. Mrs. Winkelmiller was administratrix of the estate of her husband and came into court to resign and at that time filed the claim. In the progress of the case the court ordered examination of two safety deposit boxes at a local bank where children of Mr. Winkelmiller had placed three envelopes containing $5,000 in bonds which had been marked with their names by their father and which had not been included in the inventory of the estate because they had been removed before the death of the father. The facts as maintained by the three children that the father had marked the envelopes containing the bonds were established to be true. In testimony on the claim of Mrs. Winkelmiller against the estate she claimed to have loaned her husband $6,000 of which on $4,000 had been returned. Witnesses testified to statements made by Mr. Winkelmiller previous to his death that he had borrowed the money. John Murphy of this city was named administrator of the estate following the resignation of Mrs. Winkelmiller and gave bond for $15,000. The estate is valued at $17,000, it is said. Settlement will be held up pending the appeal in circuit court in the widow's claim. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, May 8, 1916 P.8
