Cyrus was shown in the 1860 census (Jun 5 1860), living in the household of an Adam & Luthana Griffin in Boonsboro, Boone County, Iowa:⁷

Cyrus was shown in the 1870 census (Aug 16 1870), living in the household of a Ruth C. Griffin in Boonsboro, Boone County, Iowa:⁸

Cyrus was shown in the 1880 census (Jun 15-16 1880), Kendrick Township, Greene County, Iowa:⁹

He married Emma E. Wadsworth⁵ [Emma M. Cass¹⁰, Emma Canfield¹¹], Jul 1 1885⁵, Greene County, Iowa⁵. Emma, daughter of John + Martha J. Wadsworth^10,12,13,14, was born Nov - 1852^10,12,13,14 [about 1854¹¹], Wisconsin^10,12,13,14.

Emma had been previously married to a Martin Canfield (Oct 11 1870, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin)¹⁵ and then divorced before 1880.¹¹ Martin Canfield was a civil engineer who had been living in Emma's parents household in 1870.¹²

At Bear Creek MM (Iowa) on 1-25-1890, C.C. Hinshaw was received on a certificate from Bloomingdale MM, Indiana.¹⁶

Cyrus and family were shown in the 1900 census (Jun 8 1900), 723 Cheny [unclear] Street, Jefferson Township, Greene County, Iowa:¹⁰

Cyrus Clarkson Hinshaw died Dec 27 1907, buried Scranton Cemetery, Scranton, Greene County, Iowa.^4,6

WPA burial record extractions from Scranton Cemetery also show a John Wadsworth Hinshaw (1810-Oct 22 1897) and a Jennie M. Cass Hinshaw (1836-1905).^4,6 These appear to be in error, as their names and birth years match with Emma's parents, John Wadsworth (born c1808-c1812)^11,12,17 and Martha J. (Wadsworth) Cass (born Jun 1836).^10,17 They are probably buried in the same plot with Cyrus and Emma and were assumed by the WPA extractors to have been Hinshaws.¹⁸
