Notes
General:
One of the "First 500" in the Royal Newfoundland Regiment (the Blue Puttees). This note and the photo in the scrapbook were found on the Newfoundland's Grand Banks RNR website and were taken from Richard Cramm's book "The First Five Hundred":

"Enlisted, Sept. 8, 1914; British Mediterranean Expeditionary Force, Aug. 20, 1915; Evacuated from Suvla, Dec. 14, 1915; Admitted to Hospital, Malta, Dec. 17, 1915; Invalided to England, March 29, 1916; Attached to Depot, Ayr, April 27, 1916; Lance Corporal, Oct. 13, 1916; British Expeditionary Force, Oct. 24, 1916; Rejoined Battalion, Nov. 18, 1916; Wounded, Steenbeke, Aug. 20, 1917; Invalided to England, Aug. 31, 1917; Attached to Depot, Ayr, Dec. 12, 1917; Acting Corporal, May 20, 1918; Returned to Newfoundland, furlough, Aug. 21, 1918; Discharged, St. John's, medically unfit, Oct. 26, 1918."

in May 1916 a Mrs. D. MacGregor wrote to the regiment enquiring if he was alive and if so to seek support from him for a child he had with her daughter. Windsor admitted paternity and some support arrangement was agreed but he later married a different Scottish lass (Mary Farries) in any event.

•  Interesting: Form Letter from Peter J. Cashin advocating Responsible Government, 23 Mar 1948, Aquaforte, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. I am presently reading "Where Once They Stood -- Newfoundland's Rocky Road Toward Confederation", published last summer by Raymond B. Blake, former Newfoundlander and now Professor of History at the University of Regina, and Melvin Baker, who recently retired from Memorial University of Newfoundland where he was an archivist and historian. As you can imagine this is a pretty authoritative and comprehensive account of the story of Newfoundland's flirtation with Confederation from prior to 1867 until it finally committed in 1949.

Getting toward the end of the book, in the chapter dealing with the days leading up to the two referenda that were needed to make the final choice between a return to Responsible Government, remaining under a British-led Commission of Government, or joining the other nine provinces in Confederation. Raymond and Mel give this account of the letter shown here:
"…the executive of the league [the Responsible Government League led by Peter Cashin to advocate against Confederation and for Responsible Government] wrote to 45 people [Mont Windsor being one of them] in rural areas hoping they would allow their names to be added to a membership list to be published in The Independent [the voice of the Responsible Government League]. The executive was not, however, interested in having those individuals contribute to the league's planning and organization or even having them campaign in the districts in which they resided. As Jeff Webb has shown, the Responsible Government League was elitist and wanted only "prominent" men as members who, the leaders believed, would give responsible government respectability. Ordinary workers, including women and outport people, had little to contribute in terms of planning and campaigning."
A pretty scathing indictment! I wonder if Mont or any of the other recipients of this letter was taken in?.

Notes
General:
Email from Helen Steinke 12/07/00:

"#1 - I will tell you who "MONTY WINSOR" is - actually, he is WINDSOR - Peter and Anna Jennings (Winsor) Windsor's grandson. His father is/was HENRY CHARLES WINDSOR, son of Peter and Anna. (There we have that Peter and Anna again). Monty's name is actually WILFRED MONTGOMERY WINDSOR born 10 Nov 1891 - Died 16 Oct 1978. Married AMELIA THOMSON THORNE on 18 Feb 1919 in Holy Trinity Church of England, Ayr, Scotland. He was a fish merchant in Aquaforte after he finished his stint in the BIG WAR. Two of his daughter, DOROTHY KEOUGH and GRACE STOODLEY and parts of their families still live in Aquaforte. A son ALGY (Cecil Aldredge) died in Aquaforte 21 Mar 1997. His widow and parts of his family are still in Aquaforte. A daughter, ANNA CURRAN lived in Ferryland, she died in 1996. A son BRUCE (Eric Bruce), the baby of the family, lives in Kilbride, as does Dorothy Keough's son, - another MONTY, who also has a son MONTY."

Record of his gravestone in Aquaforte C of E Graveyard gives his date of death as 10 Nov. 1892: In Loving Memory of dear father Wilfred Montgomery Windsor Vet WW 1 Nov 10 1892 Oct 16 1978

230202: In a phone call with Dad (Thomas Graham Morry V) he indicated that Mont or Monty Windsor was not really an Uncle as they said but rather a cousin of his father's and his father's best friend and hunting and trouting partner. The families used to visit each other regularly for sleep overs in each other's homes. Dad Morry and Mont went to war together in Company "C" of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment and fought side by side at Gallipoli and Beaumont Hamel. Mont introduced Dad Morry to Mom Morry for the first time in Edinburgh and the two were married while overseas, as were Mont and his Scottish bride.

280906: I informed Dad of his "cousin" Grace's death and he mentioned on the phone that Mont, her father, had owned and captained a freighter among his other business dealings.

300816:
Now this is an interesting fact I did not know before: Mont Windsor was the best friend of the politician, Peter Cashin, as well as Dad Morry's best friend, but Dad Morry had not one good word to say about Peter Cashin (though he thought Peter's father, Sir Michael Cashin, was a decent man, for a politician). In his book of memoirs, edited by Ed Roberts, called My Fight For Newfoundland, Peter Cashin has this to say about his first campaign for the House of Assembly and his meeting at that time in Aquaforte:
"The population of Aquaforte was [in 1921], and still is, small, and, although scattered, we were able to visit every home in a day. It was and still is the home of one of my best friends, Mont Winsor [sic], who still lives there and raised a fine family. He was married to a Scottish lady from Ayr, whom I knew when both Mont and myself were overseas [with the RNR] in the First World War. I have been meeting members of his family quite frequently who are now grown up and have families of their own. Mont is almost two years younger than me. Mont's father, Mr. Henry Winsor, [sic] was a particular friend of father's [Sir Michael Cashin, a politician like his son] -- maybe a few years older -- and always voted for Cashin and no one else. Even his own brother, Mr. John Winsor [sic], who stood against my father on one occasion, did not get his vote."

Later in the book he added:
"From Fermeuse over to Aquaforte, the home of the Winsors as well as the Crofts. Yankee Bill and Mont Winsor, my old and loyal friend of bygone happy days in the old Newfoundland Regiment, were still there [in 1949]. Mont's wife had passed away. She was a Scottish lady from Ayr. His family have now grown up and married, and he is an old grandfather like myself. His father, Mr. Henry Winsor, was one of my father's greatest friends and supporters.
I would like to make special mention of this fine old Newfoundlander, Mr. Henry Winsor. Harry, as Father always called him, was one of old Cashin chief advisers on many matters, apart altogether from political issues. In the political elections held in Newfoundland from 1893 until 1919 (eight elections), Mr. Winsor voted for Cashin, and Cashin only-no one else. This action on his part of only voting for the one candidate had its meaning for Mr. Winsor. I understand that although he could have voted for two candidates, he had faith in only one and that one was always Cashin. When his brother, Mr. John Winsor, contested the District against my father in the autumn of either 1900 or 1904, Mr. Henry still voted for the one candidate and that was Cashin. In the election of 1908, the first time that Phil Moore stood with my father, Mr. Henry still voted for the one man-Cashin. He told my father that if he (Cashin) did not like that, he (Winsor) would not vote at all. Mr. Henry said he had no confidence in politicians generally He stated that Mike Cashin was the only one who gave you a straight answer to anything he was asked and that answer was either "Yes" or "No." For a couple of years, around 1909 and 1910, I bought dried salt fish in Aquaforte, and nearly every evening I had dinner at Mr. Winsor's and listened to him tell me that he could never work like Mike and felt that life itself was not worth all the drag a person had to put into it to make a lot of money or become a big success like he said my father
and mother had been doing for years. The first time I became a member for Ferryland, Mr. Winsor had already passed away, but his son, Mont, has always been an ardent supporter of mine and gave me that support on four occasions and helped me stronger than ever in the political battle of my life in the autumn of 1928. In this provincial election it wasn't a battle at all-it was a picnic. That was Aquaforte."
