Them other George F. Winslow was probably the one from the Marblehead.
GEORGE F. WINSLOW
Mate 25 January 1863
Acting Ensign 23 May 1863
Acting Master 14 January 1864 (Perhaps for his gallantry at the Battle of Legareville on December 25, 1863?)
Honorably Discharged 5 January 1868
Lieutenant Spanish-American War 12 July 1898
Honorably Discharged 26 November 1898
So, he was a veteran of both the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. I did not find any relation with John Ancrum Winslow, the hero of the CSS Alabama battle.
This was all I could find on him.
