Hello Kirk,
Thanks for your answer.
It is true that Theophilus isn't a very common name and the coincidence puzzled me. I have checked my files : I have no Christian and no Francis Henry among the Winklers in India. So I think there is no connection....
All my best wishes for 2011.

Hello  Charles John Theophilus Wincklers daughter Charlotte Sarah married William Henry Harris my husbands great great grandad. I have no more information on Christian but if anyone is interested in Charlotte's family I have extensive history of them.

I have a Christian Godfried Winckler born to Christian and Elizabeth Winckler in 1829 St Pancras He was baptised on 14th June 1829 and his father is listed as a piano forte maker. CJTW could well have been a cousin or perhaps a brother if it not for the fact that Christian and Eliza are noted as alive in the 1851 and 1861 census. Christian and Eliza had a daughter Elizabeth Lucy b 1826 which would suggest a connection to Lucy Free. It makes some sense to me that Christian and Lucy Free who married in 1793 were the parents of Christian who married Elizabeth Ashby and had at least 2 children Christian b 1829 and Elizabeth Lucy b 1826. Charles is their contemporary and may have well been a cousin as he was clearly to born out of wedlock. As these Wincklers come from the same area as CJTW St Pancras and given the link with piano making it would be unusual that there was  not some family connection there.
