Burnside Winslow, an investment broker of New Haven, was born in Baltimore, Maryland, August 8, 1881. His father, T. H. Winslow, a native of Portland, Maine, was descended from an old New England family of English lineage founded in America by Edward Winslow and his brother during the early part of the seventeenth century.      J. H. Winslow is engaged in the advertising business in Philadelphia. He married Helen Knight, a native of Portland, Maine, and a representative of an old New England family.

Burnside Winslow, their only child, supplemented his preparatory course, pursued at Andover, Massachusetts, by study at Yale, where he won the Bachelor of Arts degree with the class of 1904. Liberal education thus qualified him for life's practical and responsible duties. After completing his studies he was connected with the Utica Gas & Electric Company in the engineering department and was associated therewith for two years, after which he resigned his position and in 1909 came to New Haven, where he entered the brokerage business, in which he has since been continuously and successfully engaged. He has thorough acquaintance with commercial paper and other lines of investment, and his knowledge and ability have made his service thoroughly satisfactory to his clients.

On the 15th of January, 1908, Mr. Winslow was married to Miss Helen T. Carrington, a native of New Haven and a daughter of John B. and Annie (Lawton) Carrington. They now have one child, Anne Carrington, born May 4. 1909.

Mr. Winslow has voted with the republican party since age conferred upon him the right of franchise. He is widely known as a member of the Graduates, Quinnipiac, New Haven Lawn and Country Clubs of New Haven and of the Yale Club of New York, and his personal qualities make for popularity in all these organizations.
