Notes for MARY LEE FLOYD:
Mary Lee wrote in 1872 that Sergt. Charles Floyd was her brother. Her letter is preserved in the Draper papers, according to Anna Cartlidge (see below). This disagrees with the two publications on the Floyds by Floyd, 1912, op. cit., and Tuley, op. cit. She also adds that her husband was John Withers Winn, the son of James Winn. She notes that "Colonel John Floyd was my uncle." She was born about 1794 near Louisville, Ky. and "was a sister to Elizabeth (Betsy) Floyd, (wife of Thomas Minor Winn), Judge Davis Floyd, and Sergeant Charles Floyd...."

Later, courtesy of Alex Luken of Kentucky, I have a copy of Mary's letter to Lyman C. Draper, Oct. 5th, 1872, which is contained in Clifton Davis' letter of 1946 cited in the footnotes:
"Oct. 5th, 1872
- Lyman C. Draper
"Sir:
"Your letter wishing information of Col. John Winn has been received and in answer I can give no information of the said Col. Winn than has already been stated. You had best write Gen. Hebert of Louisiana who married Col. Winn's grand-daughter--
"My husband's name was John Withers Winn, his brother's name was James. Mrs. Vaughn is dead, she lived on the coast above New Orleans. I do not know in what parish. I remember nothing of Gen. Clarke's expeditions to the Rocky Mountains as I was a child, except that I had a brother who went with him, and who died during the expedition. His name was Charles Floyd. Col. John Floyd was my uncle. My father's name was Robert. Col. George R. C. Floyd was my first cousin; he lived in Ky and left one son John G. Floyd. I know nothing of him but refer you to the daughter of Gov. John Floyd of Va., Mrs. Holmes of the University of Va. I know nothing of the Indian hunter. Respectfully, Mary Lee Walton"

About 1808, Mary Lee Floyd accompanied her sister and brother-in-law, Elizabeth and Thomas Minor Winn to Natchez... going down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. She married (1) John Withers Winn, on 27 April 1809 in Natchez, Mississippi. (2) William Parke Walton, on 17 December 1818, in Natchez, Mississippi. Mrs. Walton died 25 June 1874-1875 at "Calviton," the home of her eldest daughter, in Jefferson County, Mississippi, and is buried there.
Anna Cartlidge, op. cit., says that Charles Floyd's posthumous settlement of land for his service was awarded to Robert, Elizabeth, Davis and Mary Lee.
In the Adams County Court House are records of Mary Lee's administration of the estate of John W. Winn. From these papers one might deduce that the Winn brothers apparently operated a sizeable livery in Natchez.
Alex, June, 2002, "...I have gone back through my papers to see what else I can find. On Nov. 1, 1839, Mary Lee Winn Walton assigned the land warrant she inherited from (Sergeant) Charles Floyd to John G. Berry and John T. Winn. Berry is the name of Maria Johnston Winn's second husband. I don't know who the John T. Winn is in relation to the the family--possibly a son or nephew."

Notes for JOHN WITHERS WINN:
Alex Luken found two references on the web citing John W Winn as a publisher. Here they are:
Speech of Governor Fulwar Skipwith to the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of West Florida, at St. Francisville, on the 29th of November, 1810. Natchez, (M. T. [Mississippi Territory]) -- Printed by John W. Winn & Co. [1810].
http://natchezpress.blogspot.com/2005/05/chapter-one-overview-of-na...
A few other short-lived newspapers appeared in this period, including John Wade’s Constitutional Conservator and a paper published by James Bradford mentioned but not named by Marschalk. John Winn published the Weekly Chronicle from 1808 to 1811, and he may have been using the same press used by the Terrells to publish the Messenger.
