Born in Chowan County, North Carolina , Winborne graduated from the Horner Military Academy and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill , moved to Marion, North Carolina around 1910, and joined the law firm of J.

He was appointed by Gov. Clyde R. Hoey to the state's highest court as an associate justice when the court's size was increased from five to seven justices in 1937. Gov. Luther Hodges appointed Winborne chief justice in 1956 after Chief Justice Barnhill retired.
