There is a Train Station between Hermiston and Standfield Or in Umatilla Co Or with the name of HINKLE. Don't know where the name came from or how it was chosen for the Train Stattion there. Maybe someone on list will know. Or the Hinkle's in Moses Lake, wa. I never checked the ph book to see but the Train station was there when I came to the area in May of 1951. Maxine Baldwin Wilton.

I know it's originally a German name I've seen it spelled Henkel, Henckel. My Hinkle ancestor Mary Rebecca March Hinkle Married John Franklin Adams 20 April 1820 Wayne, CO, IN both died in Turner, OR. They were both born in Rowan, NC. Mary father was Charles Henkel Germantown, Philadelphia, PA. if you recognize any of this let me know. << Dear Katherine, Read your names at the bottom and recognized one - Hinkle. On the farm adjacent to ours 13 miles east of Moses Lake, WA a widow and her 2 sons lived. Don, the one my age, and his older brother worked hard and increased the acreage they farmed. Don graduated from high school 1958. Any connection??
