Historique
Succeeded William Murfitt as the College cook. The exact date is unknown but was between 1782-84.
He learned his trade from Richard Wallis Nash, sometime cook at Christ’s College, to whom he was apprenticed in 1768 shortly after his father’s death.
A newspaper report from 1800 suggests he was at least briefly at the Pickerel in Cambridge in 1799 / 1800.
William’s son James Winder remained in Cambridge and was a baker.
He was succeeded in 1799 as College cook by Thomas Riddel.
William Winder’s uncle was Robert Gunnell, a Cambridge-born man who ended up in London as clerk to the House of Commons.
Gunnell’s wife was Ann Rosea whose brother, Jessintour Rosea, was cook to the Duke of Somerset.
