Father Winter
In 1829 he removed to Adrian, a village just projected by Isaac Dean and his son-in-law, J. Comstock. But ten or twelve buildings had been erected. the first store in the place, and Winter street, on -which his store stood, was named in his honor. The same year he married a daughter of Mr. Dean. The Indians were at that time quite numerous in that vicinity, and he became very popular with them, and they named him Mclntosh, knowing him by no other name till the last red man left Lenawee county. Whatever Mclntosh said was, to them, always right. He returned to the practice of medicine in Chicago some years before his death, December 12, 1867. His widow was still living in 1885.
