Well, my Henson line also appears to have come out of Randoph Co NC via Wayne Co KY. Kathy, the big question that a lot of people would like to know is the one you just asked. I don't know who Mrs. Mary 'Polly' Hines/Hinds was married to before she married Rev War Vet John Forbis of Laurel Co KY. A 'Paul Pigg' certified that 'Polly' was a widow so she was free to marry John. Paul Pigg should be a good lead to check out ... is he her father/brother? After John Forbis died 1854, 'Polly' applied and was approved to receive a pension based on John's military service and she lived out her life in Laurel Co KY. The only Hines/Hinds that I have in my data-base in Madison Co KY is a John Hines/Hinds married to Rebecca Robinson on August 06, 1789 Madison Co KY. John and Rebecca had a daughter Margaret 'Peggy' Hines/Hinds who married Thomas Harris/Harrison (son of Sherrod) on August 09, 1811 Clay Co KY. I am showing a Stephen Hines/Hinds b abt 1792 married to a Sarah Reece. I also have a Samuel Hines/Hinds who showed up in the 1805 Garrard Co KY Tax List. Also, Jackson Co KY came out of Laurel Co KY and in Jackson Co KY there was an Eliza Hines/Hinds living there as of August 11, 1862. Please share any Hines/Hinds family information that may help determine who Mrs. 'Polly' Hines/Hinds was married to prior to her marriage to Rev War Vet John Forbis of Laurel Co KY. Thanks for sharing.

Any clues as to who Mrs. Mary 'Polly' Hines/Hinds was originally married to? I know around 1779 the Joseph Hinds family lived in Rowan (now Randolph) county, NC. My hubby's line in the son named Stephen Hinds/Hines. Stephen was born in Knox county, NT, then move to Wayne county, KY in childhood. In adulthood he lived in Madison county, KY before finally settling in Pulaski county, KY. Kathy "ROATEN E HINSON, JR." wrote: > > Mary Ann, I noticed Wyat Hazlewood listed.

Moving one generation back from the family described in my last e-mail: From the book "HINDS of KY and TN" by Trimble - pg. 2 Joseph Hinds was born about 1759 in Morris County, New Jersey, and moved to Rowan (now Randolph) County, North Carolina, where in 1779 he paid taxes on 200 acres, 30 of which were improved, three cattle and 5 pounds cash, all valued at 335 pounds. About 1780 he married Margaret _____; they moved to Hawkins (now Knox) County, Tennessee, and then to Green (now Wayne) County, Kentucky, where on April 7, 1799, he surveyed a grant of 100 acres on the waters of Cumberland River; on May 20, 1799 , he sruveyed another 100 acres grant there. On August 22, 1808, he sold 300 acres of his father's 5,000 acre grant on Duck River in Maury County, Tennessee, to Joseph Woods for $40.00; on April 1, 1811, he received a grant of 100 acres on Meadows' Mill Creek. He died about 1813, leaving the following children: [1] Joseph Hinds, b. c1781; m. March 30, 1801, Amy Meece - lived in Madison county, KY in 1815. [2] George Hinds, b. c1783; m. Nov. 28, 1811, Mary Hinkle - many of his children moved to Cole county, MO and perhaps he moved there about 1840 as well. [3] Benjamin Hinds, b. c1785; private in Barbee's 7th Regiment of KY militia in the War of 1812; m. Dec. 20, 1819, Nancy Fox - they moved to Miller county, MO where he died about 1856. [4] Jane Hinds, born Nov. 20, 1787; m. Nov. 12, 1805, Joel Bond - they moved to Breckenridge county, KY and then to Miller county, MO [5] Charity Hinds, b. Aug 9, 1789; m. Nay 26, 1808, William Bond - they moved to Cole county, MO [6] Stephen Hinds (described in my last e-mail) [7] Margaret Hinds, b. c1793; m. Feb. 26, 1814, John McHenry - they lived in Bates county, MO. John died in Jefferson City, MO, while serving in the state legislature.

I'm finding that one of Joseph's brothers also moved to Wayne Co., KY. I probably shouldn't post all of that info as the rest of the folks on this list would probably keel over from the onslaught of Hinds information. ;o) Just a synopsis: Joseph Hinds' brother Samuel married at least twice; Sarah ___ abt 1788 and Mrs. Martha Carrigan on Aug 20, 1820. Samuel moved to (now) Wayne Co, KY where he surveyed a grant on the Cumberland river on Dec. 20, 1798, and a grant of 50 acres there on June 3, 1800. Another brother, Levi, moved from Hawkins (now Knox Co.), TN to Madison county, Alabama. Another brother, Simeon, moved to Overton Co., TN and lived out his life there. In addition to the brothers (Joseph, Samuel, Levi, and Simeon) there were also 7 sisters: Charity, Hannah, Ruth, Mary, Phoebe, Sarah and Abagail. Kathy Hines in MN
