His date of birth is unknown but he resided in Spartanburg, South Carolina where he attended the common schools.

Windhams Crossroads, South Carolina is an unincorporated area of land where South Carolina Highway 403 and U.S. Route 401 cross near Lamar in Darlington County, South Carolina named after the Windham surname.  The area is documented in the 1825 Atlas of South Carolina by Robert Mills.  Charles Windham arrived in the colony of Virginia in 1706 on a ship captained by Col. Robert Boiling.  He eventually left to settle in the area of what was then called Craven County, South Carolina where he petitioned and received a royal land grant of 300 acres in 1754 from the Council of King George II of England.  Other land in this area is attributed to Charles' son Amos Windham, who received seven hundred acres in royal land grants between 1769 and 1772.  During the Revolutionary War, Amos Windham served in the South Carolina Militia.  He received his appointment as Lieutenant on February 21, 1776, in the St. David's Parish, and began his service in Colonel G.C. Powell's Regiment.  He served as Captain during 1781, 1782, and 1783 in Colonel Kolb's Regiment, Marion's Brigade, and was commissioned Major after the war ended.  Following the Revolutionary War, Major Amos Windham received thousands of acres in state land grants between 1785 and 1795 in Cheraw District, which was formerly Craven County and later became Darlington County.

Lyles, Bissett, Carlisle, and Wolff (LBC&W), an architecture firm based in Columbia, South Carolina, was the region’s most prominent firm from 1948 until 1975.  While the roots of the firm stretch back to 1938, LBC&W was officially incorporated in 1948 as William G. Lyles, Thomas J. Bissett, William A. Carlisle, and Louis M. Wolff.  LBC&W’s streamlined operational structure, atypically high employment numbers, and varied portfolio contributed to the success of the firm.  The firm had satellite offices in Richmond, Virginia; Washington, D.C.; Spartanburg, South Carolina; Raleigh, North Carolina; and Rockville, Maryland.  At its height, over 350 architects, engineers, and other staff members were employed by LBC&W.  The firm completed over 7,000 projects in its 30-year span, many of which were on the cutting edge of Modern architecture.  From Clemson University's library that reflects the influence of Edward Durell Stone's Embassy at New Delhi to the Bankers Trust Tower in downtown Columbia that mimics the Seagram Building by Mies van der Rohe, LBC&W incorporated the methodologies and designs of the great architects of the twentieth century.  LBC&W designed some of South Carolina’s – and certainly Columbia’s – most prominent commercial and private buildings, creating the modern built environment of Columbia today.
