Joan,
My family is of German descent, not Irish.I am not sure why they changed it, and no one seems to know on the German Windle-Wendle family board.There is a reference in the book "History of Shenandoah Co." by Wayland Windle, "Windle was orignally spelled Wendel, but the Virginia Wendel's changed the spelling to Windle."
Hope this helps.
