Herman Heinrich Winter (May 12, 1805 – December 28, 1884) was an American farmer from Watertown, Wisconsin who spent one term as a "Democratic Republican" member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from Jefferson County.

Background

As of 1860, Winter described himself as a native of Bremen; he was a farmer, aged 55 and had been in Wisconsin for 16 years.

Legislative service

Winter was elected in 1859 for the 4th Jefferson County Assembly district (the Towns of Ashippun, Lebanon, Ixonia and Watertown), succeeding Democrat Ferdinand Wagner. (He was the only member of either house to designate himself a "Democratic Republican".) He was appointed to the standing committee on charitable and religious institutions.[1] He was succeeded by Democrat Samuel Hays.
