History
The village of Winston is named for General Joseph W. Winston, son of Colonel Joseph Winston, an American Revolutionary War soldier and patriot for whom the city of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is partly named. Major Winston's son Joseph W. served in the War of 1812 and was later appointed a Major General in the North Carolina militia forces. He came to the Platte Purchase territory in Missouri in 1838, where he and his wife settled seven miles southeast of Platte City.[6]
The town of Winston had its start in the year 1871 by the building of the railroad through that territory.[7]
