Thanks Ken. As a kid, I grew up next door to the winkworth family here in grosse pointe woods. I went to school with a john winkworth ( third generation - I believe ). At 76 years young, I'm trying to learn more about this family and maybe find any remaining family members. I believe the family had a few patents on cement machinery but, I can not find any information on anything relating to this family or their cement business. The port huron area had many cement plants thru the years and I believe these families all knew of each other but information seems a bit scarce. Thanks again Ken, as I continue my search for more information.
