Notes:

born 1778?
married 1807-03-10 Mary Fox?
He may have spelled his name Hines.
--
there were probably two other children born before 1824

Did he have a daughter Elizabeth who married William Etter? Currently I have that Elizabeth as a daughter of Ben Hinds who is a second cousin of this Ben. However, on the 1850 census Elizabeth is living next to this Ben. But I also know that the other Ben had a daughter Elizabeth, and so far I don't know of one for this Ben. Also, Elizabeth's implied birth date of 1827 does not fit the census entries for this Ben.
