Andrew Winer

THE EXETER TIMES December 17, 1884

RETURNED- Mr. Andrew Winer, who removed from here some 25 years ago to Michigan, returned to Crediton a few days ago. During his sojourn in Michigan, he left home one morning at the time of the war, saying he was going to hunt cattle, but instead he enlisted as a soldier. His family saw no more of him, and thought he just have been murdered or lost. Al short time after that the family returned to Crediton, and his wife again married within two or three years. To the surprise of all, the other evening he put in an appearance, and his children who have grown out of his recognition, were greatly though happily surprised to see their supposed murdered or lost father. He is contented to allow his wife to remain with her present husband.
