Winger (Spelled "Wenger" by some members of family), "The Wingers were among the early and respectable settlers of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. They came to America from Switzerland as early as 1748 and settled in Lancaster County. They were an enterprising, industrious, and honorable people. Their descendants are now to be found in almost every state of the United States and quite a number have settled in Canada. The old progenitor that came from Switzerland was "Hans" (John) Winger. His family consisted of seven sons who were all born in Switzerland. The Wingers in Waterloo County are descendants of this old "Hans". Some are the children of old Joseph Wenger, a great-grandson of old "Hans", while others are descendants of old John Winger who was a grandson of old Hans Winger, and son of Adam Winger. We shall first give the descendants of old Joseph Wenger."

Joseph Wenger, "was born and resided in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where he died. He was married to Elizabeth Zimmerman who was born November 21st, 1778, and died March 23rd, 1840. After his decease, which took place in Pennsylvania in 1824, the widow with her family moved to Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada, in 1825, and resided in the town of Waterloo, in old Abraham Erb's house for eighteen months, then she moved two and one-half miles north of the town of Waterloo, on the place known as "Freunds" (now Eli Martins), opposite the Martin Mennonite Church. Here she resided until her death. Her family consisted of nine children"

Notes:

OUR FAMILY BARNS \endash by Grayden SLOWINS:

The oldest barn still in existence in our family is that of my Mennonite relatives at Martindale, Lancaster County, PA. A stone barn built by Joseph & Elizabeth ZiMMERMAN WENGER in 1797, it has been well maintained and added to, and cows are still milked there every night & morning. Also teams of horses call it home, along with a black buggy, a John DEERE tractor with steel lugs, and a spring wagon painted John DEERE green & yellow. The "new" house, also of stone, was built in 1800 to replace the old structure Joseph was born in, in 1769. They were my great-great-great-great-grandparents. His sister Elizabeth ZIMMERMAN WENGER married his wife's brother Christian ZIMMERMAN, and when Elizabeth ZIMMERMAN WENGER was widowed, she sold he farm to Christian & Elizabeth WENGER ZIMMERMAN, so the current owners are doubly cousins to us.

The second oldest barn, on the nearby farm at Groffdale, PA, of our five times great-grandfather, Christian WENGER, who emigrated from Switzerland in 1727, was replaced "new" in 1811. It is also largely built of stone. The foundations of the old barn are nearby.

The third oldest barn is a little unpainted wood barn built for widow Elizabeth ZIMMERMAN WENGER when she moved with her family from Martindale, PA, to Martin's Corners, Waterloo Township, Ontario, in 1825. The stone house and white wood church are also still standing.
