Here you will find rosters of Wynkoop family members and their descendants who served during all of the conflicts our country engaged in, from the mid 1600s to the present day.

    Many of these conflicts weren't officially wars, as such, in that other countries were not necessarily involved, but family members sacrificed lives and personal property in many of these efforts so that their loved ones could live in peace and security. They deserve to be remembered by us all.

    The lists I will be developing over time will probably prove to be incomplete in the long run, but I will be doing my best to make sure that as many family members are listed here as possible. In the case of the early wars and conflicts of the sixteen and seventeen hundreds there are very few accurate lists of participants available, and I will be relying on a very wide variety of sources to compile rosters for the family members who served. Any help that you can provide in making these lists as accurate as possible would be deeply appreciated. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you have information you would like to share or feel that I've overlooked a family member. I would appreciate hearing from you.
