Mahala Ada Hinshaw1,2 [Mehale Hinshaw3, Mahla Hinshaw2].

Born Dec 6 18264,5,6 [Dec 6 18271], North Carolina4,5,6.  The Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy (Vol. I, page 749)2 shows Mahala born 12 Mo. 6 1824, but this date seems impossible since it was just seven months after brother John was born (same source).  However the 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880 censuses were all very consistent in showing Mahala born about 1826, not 1824.4,5,7,8
