Hi: There is a Benjamin Hines in the list below. Also interesting to the Hinds line that connected with the Edward Mattix/Eliz Bond (Quaker) line - there are surnames that married Mattix/Bond children - West - Crowley - Mathis (Mattix?)and Roberson. Do any of you connect to this Benjamin Hines? Am also sending this to the Mattix-L list.
