David WINCHELL - bap. Oct. 22, 1643, Windsor, CT; d. 1723-1724, Suffield, CT. Son of Robert WINCHELL. Moved to Suffield, CT about 1677, the last record of him at Windsor being a contribution for the relief of families due to King Philip's War in 1676. No evidence has been located to support the contention that David WINCHELL married Mary GRIFFIN as his second wife (see "David-2 Winchell (Robert-1) of Suffield, Conn.," by Mrs. Albert H. Chase in TAG 24:49-50 for the evidence showing that David's single marriage and Mary (GRIFFIN) WILSON HOSKINS two marriages). David married Nov. 18, 1669, Windsor, CT.

David Winchell under date 25 April 1673 sold to his brother Nathaniel all of his paternal estates lying on the west side of the highway at Windsor. In the record of voluntary contribution for relief of families distressed by "King Philip's war," David Winchell stands credited for 2s 6d ‑ date 1676. From this time David disappears from the Windsor records and subsequent history is found in the records of Suffield, Conn.
