E. Winstead, a prominent farmer of the Fifth District, was born November 17, 1822, in Hawkins County, Tenn., the fifth child of Ephraim and Margaret (Martin) Winstead. They were of Irish-Welsh descent. The father was a farmer and stock raiser. He was a Whig, and his death occurred in Hawkins County October 27, 1832. The mother was an excellent Christian woman, a member of the Baptist Church. She died October 24, 1872. The subject of our sketch was raised on the farm. His educational advantages were very limited.
