Varina Anne Davis
Varina Anne "Winnie" Davis (June 27, 1864 – September 18, 1898) was an American author. A daughter of President of the Confederate States of America, Jefferson Davis, she became known as "Daughter of the Confederacy", for her appearances with her father on behalf of Confederate veterans' groups.
==Childhood==
Varina Anne "Winnie" Davis was born one year before the end of the American Civil War in the White House of the Confederacy in Richmond, Virginia. She was the second daughter and the sixth child of Varina Banks Howell Davis and Jefferson F. Davis. The youngest, she was the only child of the family who was allowed to visit her father in Fort Monroe with her mother during his two years of imprisonment that followed the Civil War. They were eventually given an apartment in the officers' quarters to use.
Winnie was home-educated by her mother and father in her early years. She later accompanied her parents on their numerous journeys. At the age of thirteen, she was sent to the ''Misses Friedländers School'' in Karlsruhe, Germany. She studied for five years in the renowned boarding school, in that time acquiring a slight German accent. Later, she studied in Paris for a short while before returning to the United States.〔Winnie Davis: Daughter of the Lost Cause by Heath Hardage Lee〕
