Poseidon, the god of the sea, was once dating Medusa. The two of them got it on in Athena's temple. Naturally, Athena wasn't very pleased, so she cursed Medusa and her two sisters, Stheno and Euryale, with ugliness (snakes for hair, etc.) as well as the ability to turn men who looked them in the eyes to stone (so that no man could ever look upon them again).
Gorgons
The Gorgons were three: Medusa Sthenno Euryale
I can't believe this is the third time I'm going to have to explain this. Greek myths DO NOT have dates, so there isn't a date when the Gorgons are born. Oh, BTW, the three gorgons weren't born gorgons. They were three beautiful girls, but they were cursed by Athena.
Stheno.

Gorgons did have wings think of MEDUSA

The singular of gorgons is gorgon. As in "the Gorgon is an Ancient Greek creature".
The Gorgons were three: Medusa Sthenno Euryale
There only were three Gorgons. Therefore, most figures in mythology, such as the Gods or Titans, weren't Gorgons. The names of the three gorgons were Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale. Medusa was the only Gorgon who was mortal.
