Since I discovered that Wintle was the older spelling, I've met a seventh cousin once removed (our common ancestor died around 1720) who has done a great deal of research on the name. I'll pass on Eliza's comment about Windle to her. It might open some more avenues of research. Thanks to language hat for spreading my post around.
