Born about 1749.^2,8 Thomas' birth date has been variously reported to be c1749, c1737, or c1740. A newspaper article once even claimed Thomas was a twin of brother William (whose exact birth date is also unknown).⁹

The Cane Creek MM records show that on 1-5-1765 Thomas & Joseph Hinshaw were received on a certificate (not mentioning from where). Presumably this refers to this Thomas as his brother was Joseph.¹⁰

A few months later, on 6-1-1765, Thomas Hinshaw was granted a certificate to Pennsylvania, presumably this Thomas since his father Jacob was living in Pennsylvania at the time.¹⁰

He married Hannah Seasfield^1,3 [Elinor Seafield^2,11], 1766^1,3. Hannah was born about 1745.^1,2

Thomas Hinshaw died May 26 1825, Surry County, North Carolina; buried Deep Creek Friends Cemetery, Yadkin County, North Carolina.^1,2,12
