Windsorton is ’n dorpie aan die Vaalrivier in die distrik Barkly-Wes, genoem na sy stigter PE Windsor (1869). vroeër was dit ’n delwerskamp bekend as Hebron. Die Korananaam van die streek was xai-b, ook in Nama is xai-b ’n 'koedoe', vgl. Rust 1960 DNW 37. Al is die Khoekhoense vorm vervang deur die nuwe naam Windsorton, leef dit tog vertaald voort in die plaasnaam Koedoes Dam, nr Kim.Q.4-11 op K 2824 BC, en in die naam van die sylyn Koedoe op hierdie plaas. Koedoes Dam le ong. 1 km noord van Windsorton Road, ’n stasie wat ong. 8 km oos van die dorpie geleë is. Vgl. Topo- kadastrale reeks 1960 vel 2824 Kimberley.
