Description	Local historian Lindsey Williams is shown standing by the Fort Winder community center marker. Fort Winder was built in 1852 by Brigadier General John Henry Winder, also called "the Beast of Andersonville." General Winder was the officer in charge of Confederate prisons during the Civil War. Fort Winder was located across the Peace River from Fort Ogden, on what is now King's Highway, and served as a refuge for settlers during the Battle of Peace River in 1855. No remnants of the fort remain.
