With the request for information concerning Sam Hinds, I have been looking for Samuel. Rather foolish in my case. I had family from the late 1700s - 1800s with the name SAMPSON Hind(s). In Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and who knows where from there? Thought I would throw that out, as if the issue was not confused enough as is.

Hi: Found this while searching the USGenWeb archives for WV for names other than HInds/Hines and just ran across this interesting family story of the Hines in Marshal Co. WV in the 1700s. Read down a ways and you'll find this interesting Hines family. Regards, Nan [email protected] ---------------------------------------------- Found at: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ifetch2?/u1/data/wv+index+264029424534 +F Typed by MARGUERITE HOWARD for the Marshall County WVGenWeb. HISTORY OF MARSHALL COUNTY From: History of The Pan Handle; Being Historical Collections of the Counties of Ohio, Brooke, Marshall and Hancock, West Virginia. Compiled and written by J. H. Newton, G. G. Nichols, A. G. Sprankle. Published by J. A. Caldwell, 1879. (Nan skipped down to the town of Cameron) THE OLDEST SETTLERS. The oldest settlers in the town of Cameron, were Reason B. Howard, John Ryan, Wm. Gosney, Isaac Hubbs, Isaac Coe, Philip Coe, John Welling, John Chambers, D. McConaughey, and George Kerr. In 1851, all the land lying south of the south branch of Grave creek was in woods. In connection with the history of Cameron, the following anecdotes have been related: There lived a family by the name of Hines near what is now Cameron Station. About the year 1788, a bushel of apples was procured by one of the family in Washington, Pa. Being thought considerable of a luxury at that time, they were sparingly distributed among the members of the family. A little _____ had finished one and accidentally choked on the core. After some time it was relieved, and through curiosity a member of the family procured the heart seed and planted it. It grew to a large tree, and is still standing on the farm now owned by Mr. David McConaughey. The Hines brothers, Joseph, Christopher and John, built a block- house for defense against Indian depredations. Near it at one time, they had a nice lot of hogs fattening for use. A band of savages suddenly came upon them and took quite a fancy to them, and asked permission of the Hines brothers to kill one. Permission was readily granted and the Indians assisted by the family soon killed and dressed the hog. The circumstance afterwards proved to be of material benefit to the Hines family. It was the means of sustaining friendly relations between them and the savages. The following is related of Christopher: On one occasion he climbed a poplar tree for the purpose of procuring bees. He ventured too far out on a limb; it swung down, and he was unable to reach the body of the tree. With great presence of mind he asked his companions to clear away the stones to give him a soft place to light. "Clear away the stones and stones, and never mind the prayers," said he. The logs and stones were finally cleared away. Christopher unlimbered and reached the ground in safety. "Now", said he, "If I had waited to pray there would have been a dead man about here; we must do something as well as pray."

Hi: I thought that you KY HInds researchers would be interested in this mention of a Hinds historian in KY - historian, not a genealogist. And, in the two viewpoints of men who were "there" in Normandy. Interesting is the fact that he was head of the KY Historical Society at one time - wonder what Hinds line he is part of? Any of you know? Regards, Nan [email protected] ----------------------------------- I am leaving out parts of the article Modesto Bee newspaper, Sunday, July 15 FINDING THE FATHER HE NEVER KNEW French Villagers Kept Pilot's Memory Alive for Kentuckian's son by Charles Wolfe, The Associated Press OWENSBORO,Ky - Jesse Mountjoy had a job at a finance company, musical talent, an attractive wife and a son. He also had a patriotic streak that spurred him to enlist in the Army Air Corps and led to his death in Normandy. Last month, the namesake son who had been too young to remember stood near a cornfield where his father's P-47 Thunderbolt crashed in 1944. Also present were French villagers, and descendants of villagers, who had hidden the dead pilot from Germans. They later added his name to their own war memorial and eventually tracked down the son in Kentucky. "They have been the stewards of my father's memory for 57 years," Jesse T. Mountjoy Jr. said. A sign of that stewardship is etched into a monument to war dead in La Haye-Pesnell (LyePenn-NELL),a village of about 1,500. It commemorates "Lt. Jesse T. Mountjoy, American aviator, 9th U.S. Army Air Force, killed for the liberation of La Haye-Pesnell, July 31, 1944". (It then goes on to tell of memories of his father and the villagers story of the crash.)................................................. (continued) To find the pilot's relatives, the people of Le Haye-Pesnell enlisted the help of Ken Dungey, a retired U.S. Air Force major who settled in Frnce. He teamed up with Howard Swonger, who maintains a nostalgic Web site about the 2nd Armored Division. Both have helped find a number of American veterans. Using the Internet, Swonger found Jesse and Helen Mountjoy in Owensboro. Helen Mountjoy said the couple found in France "a resurgence of interest in putting up monuments" to the war and having American visitors when a monument is dedicated. Charles Hinds, a historian and D-Day veteran who once was director of the Kentucky Historical Society, said he thinks the interest in cynical. The Normans want to get on the right side of history, he said. "They were not very friendly toward us, which is sort of understandable. American came, and we bombed the heck out of them." said Hinds, of Frankfort. Swonger, who was an 82nd Armored scout, said Hinds experience was "far from the way I found it" in Normandy. Some young Frenchmen actually fought alongside Swonger, he said. (Article then goes on to family memories of the dead pilot)

Hi: Spotted this in the Ancestry.com newsletter. Acknowledgement is at the bottom. If you send it on to someone make sure that the bottom sentence is included. I especially want you to note this paragraph: "The National Genealogical Society lists http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/ fifteen tips for considerate family historians who wish to publish materials on the Internet. Another useful source for learning the basics of creating and publishing Web pages is located on Cyndi's List (http://www.cyndislist.com/construc.htm)." Worth bookmarking, I think. Regards, Nan [email protected] --------------------------------- ==================================================================== "TO PUBLISH OR NOT TO PUBLISH," by Ralph J. Crandall, Ph.D. ==================================================================== Genealogy is a uniquely collaborative pursuit. One genealogist's research provides valuable information that can be applied, interpreted, or cited by others. It is similar to a "pay it forward" exercise, where one person's efforts affect the research of several genealogists, which impacts the work of even more people. And so it continues, building upon itself until the entire genealogical community benefits. Perhaps you've worked on a genealogy for years and you're ready to show it to the world. Or you've deciphered an old document and want to share some exciting data you don't think others know about. Maybe you have an opinion about a problem or event that you'd like to present to a particular audience. What do you plan to do with your information? The most practical way to let other genealogists know about your research is to publish it. Seeing your name in print and knowing your work influences others can be rewarding. Conversely, dispersing shoddy conclusions or contributing inaccurate data to the genealogical pool can do a great deal of harm to your reputation and can affect the conscientious work of others. But maybe you have publishable data and you just don't know it. WHAT TO PUBLISH As any reader of this magazine knows, genealogical publishing does not center entirely on family group sheets and pedigree charts. In addition to the plethora of opinions and how-to information genealogists love to share, it is always exciting to discover pertinent, detailed information others have worked on in tandem with their genealogical work. While a compiled genealogy is the ultimate goal for many of us, we review so many sources in the research process that we often become experts on a given area. Publishing presents us with the opportunity to disseminate new-found knowledge to the genealogical field. As an example, let's say you've completed a genealogy on a Civil War widow in nineteenth-century Michigan. In addition to the compiled genealogy, you now have a wealth of information for the genealogical data pool. You have not only learned about this particular woman's family and her husband's family, but you may have also added items to your repertoire, each of which can be published to educate other researchers. Following is just a sampling of the many items you could share with researchers. --- Comparative data of a county's residents in the 1860 and 1870 censuses. While many men will have disappeared during that ten-year period for reasons other than war, reviewing such data could be a rewarding study. --- Military pension files of the widow's husband. By abstracting relevant data, a researcher could create valuable content to help others researching the same family lines. --- Church or vital records on a roll of microfilm. By publishing the transcription created from deciphering the handwriting on the records, you would save others the trouble of needlessly duplicating efforts. --- Westward migration details. Elaborate on your knowledge of migration with specific stories you gleaned while reviewing manuscript collections. --- Letters, diaries, and photographs. All such historical items can be abstracted and published. --- A comparison of several families based on family relationships or community connections. This information could be turned into an analytical article and could ultimately be published in a scholarly journal. WHERE TO PUBLISH Once you reach a point where you feel comfortable sharing your data, there are several places to publish your work. But before you publish, it's important to determine the target audience. Who will be most interested in your information? Family members? Scholars? Genealogists surfing the Internet? What you choose to publish can be as scholarly as you wish. You can choose whether to present raw data or you can add your interpretation of the data as well, depending on your target audience and where you will publish. Whether you have general genealogy ideas, interesting stories to tell, or an opinion to opine, consider your audience and where that audience will want to read your work. THE INTERNET The Internet is a vast repository in which to place your work. There, you are unlimited in disseminating your information to any number of people. Publishing information online also yields the quickest results and leads to nearly instant interaction with those who read your documents and family history. One drawback to Internet publishing is that anyone can say anything in any way, unedited and untested. (And yet, so many genealogists rely on the Internet for content and proof of relations that it has become a primary research tool.) Privacy issues are paramount when publishing anywhere, but most especially when publishing on the Internet. Be careful about what information you disseminate. Respect the privacy of living people, as well as their immediate relations. Honor the English language. Some of the most frequently misspelled genealogy-related terms are those that are most frequently used, such as "genealogy" and "cemetery." Proper grammar and spelling can make or break credibility. The National Genealogical Society lists http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/ fifteen tips for considerate family historians who wish to publish materials on the Internet. Another useful source for learning the basics of creating and publishing Web pages is located on Cyndi's List (http://www.cyndislist.com/construc.htm). In addition to launching a personal Web site, you may wish to contact an appropriate historical society, a related family association, or even the local public library about publishing on its Web site. There is usually a great deal of interest within these organizations to add content to their Web pages. A genealogical Web site such as The USGenWeb Project is an excellent starting place. You may find a project in progress that you'd like to help with and lend your name to, or there might be another place for your work within the site. Once you post content on a Web site, let other genealogists know about it via mailing lists, e-mail, etc. A good starting place is at RootsWeb. NEWSPAPERS AND PERIODICALS If you believe you have an interesting story to share with a particular community, contact the editor of the community's local newspaper. Editors are often looking for good information to add to their lifestyle pages. History, when presented in an interesting manner, always sells. In addition, historical societies and family associations generally have newsletters and are looking for interesting and pertinent content from members. Join and publish. National magazines like "Ancestry," "New England Ancestors," "Family Chronicle," and many others rely on articles written by professionals in the field, but they will accept well-written, accurate, and informative submissions on an unsolicited basis. Scholarly periodicals like "The New England Historical and Genealogical Register," the "National Genealogical Society Quarterly," "The American Genealogist," and journals of respected regional societies also accept submissions. If you feel your conclusions are noteworthy or have an academic slant, you may wish to consider submitting them for publication in a periodical. MONOGRAPHS AND BOOKS Perhaps you've accumulated so much information that you want to publish a book. Here, too, there are many options. You may self- publish by printing your work from your computer and making copies for your relatives and favorite historical societies. Or you may want to approach a small publishing house or vanity press. Larger genealogical companies and societies, including The Newbury Street Press and Gateway Press, have publishing departments. You may also be surprised to find a plethora of publishing companies with a genealogical or family history focus simply by searching online. PUBLISHING GUIDELINES As previously stated, one person's work can ultimately benefit genealogists throughout the world. However, that statement is true only if the work is based on sound genealogical principles. The flip side is that false or poorly researched information can likewise infect the entire genealogical community, spreading quickly and doing a lot of harm, especially on the Internet. It is therefore essential that any work placed on the Internet or in a print medium is thoroughly scrutinized for inaccuracies. Likewise, it is imperative that as a user of information, a genealogist double-checks the accuracy of every fact he or she uses. As I outlined in the article "Compiled Genealogies: Re-evaluating the 'Facts'" (Ancestry, Mar/Apr 2000 http://www.ancestry.com/library/view/ancmag/2507.asp), there are several steps you can take to ensure that you are presenting credible data. You will also find helpful information about genealogical standards on the NGS and Cyndi's List Web sites listed above. None of us are in genealogy on our own. Once you find yourself in a position to publish, you will be amazed at the number of people willing to help you present things properly. After you publish, you will not only discover that your work moves forward quickly into the larger realm of the genealogical data pool, but also that a lot of good will return to you. There is benefit for others as you "pay it forward," but watch for your own rewards as your published information returns to you in ways you never imagined. ____________________________________________________________________ Ralph J.
