     James Winans appeared on the census of 14 Aug 1850 at Osolo Township, Elkhart County, Indiana, as follows:
     James Winans, 40, farmer, b. Ohio
     Martha , 36, b. Ohio
     David M. , 12, b. Ind.
     Sarah C. , 10, b. Ohio
     Nancy Jane , 6, b. Ind.
     Ann M. , 3, b. Ind.
This is apparently the same James Winans who married Emeline Olds. If so, apparently Martha died by 1860. Nancy Jane is then listed as Jane and Ann M. is then listed as Hannah. Also see http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/c/l/a/David-N-Clark-Sonora/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-0006.html

          A biography of David M. Winans tells something of his father's family as follows:
"DAVID M. WINANS was born in Elkhart County, Indiana, September 11, 1838, the place of his birth being about three miles from the Michigan State line. His father, James Winans, was born in New Jersey, in 1810, and when he was a small child his parents moved to Ohio, and settled in Miami County. He grew to manhood there, married, and afterward lost his wife, and also their only child.
"From Ohio he moved into Indiana, and there married again on the 28th of September 1837, his wife being Martha Ashby. The country was new and the land thickly covered with timber, which was being chopped down by the settlers in clearing places for homes, and carrying on agricultural pursuits. Mr. Winans bought a farm in Elkhart County, and erected a log cabin, in which the family made themselves very comfortable, considering the disadvantages of those early days.
"In 1854 he came across the plains with a party bound for California, being about six months from the time they left the Missouri River until they arrived in the valley of San Jose. In the fall of 1855 he returned to Indiana, and one year from that time disposed of his property there, and again embarked for the Golden State, this time bringing with him his children, his wife in the meantime having died. They sailed from New York, via Panama, and arrived in San Francisco, on board the Golden Gate, about the last of November, 1856.
"He located in Marin County, and bought, what he supposed at that time to have been, government land, upon which he lived a number of years, before he found that the title was not good, and was compelled to give it up. He afterward leased the place for two or three years, then changed his residence to a place near San Rafael, and finally moved into that city, where he died September 4, 1878. In the family there are four children, three daughters and one son."
This makes no mention of the marriage to Emeline Olds and leaves the impression that the only surviving children belonged to James' second wife.³
