I've been working on these pesky Winslows for the last three years and am now writing up that research. Elisha/Elijah was the son of Elisha Winslow of Newcastle, Maine, who was killed at Matinicus Island in 1758. Elisha senior was a son of Doctor Nathaniel Winslow who was born around 1679 and married Elizabeth Holbrook around 1701. The couple left Middleboro, Massachusetts sometime after 1714 when Elisha Sr. was born, and went to Essex County, then Falmouth, then Scarborough, and then Damariscotta, Maine in 1729. Get in touch if you want more info. I am a descedant of Elisha Sr's brother, Nathaniel4 (Nathaniel 3, Kenelm 2, Kenelm 1) . laelmontgomery@aol.com.
