John Hinshaw     [ID 03700]

Born about 1801, North Carolina.^a,b    (c1795).^c

He married Hannah Carter, Jun 1 1823, Surry (now Yadkin) County, North Carolina.^44,d,141,e    Hannah Carter, daughter of Joseph Carter & Margaret Hinshaw, was born about 1805, North Carolina.^141,a,c,b    John and Hannah were first cousins.

A marriage bond was recorded for John Hinshaw & Hannah Carter on June 1, 1823, Surry County, North Carolina.    Benjamin Hinshaw was recorded as a bondsman.³⁶

Note: At Cane Creek MM on 2-7-1795, "Hannah Hinshaw (formerly Carter) was disowned for her marriage out of unity".    This seemingly could not have been this Hannah Carter, but it does seem odd that there were two Hannah Carter Hinshaws within about a 28 year time span.    Could William Wade Hinshaw have made an error in the date that he showed, or were there really 2 Hannah Carter Hinshaws??

John and family were shown in the 1850 census, Surry County, North Carolina:^f

All but one of John & Hannah's sons served in the Civil War.    In a letter written by a J.M. Martin to a Jesse Dobbins, the author mentioned: "Your uncle John Hinshaw's boys was all in the army but Joseph.    James was at home when I left with one of his eyes shot out".^h

John and Hannah were shown in the 1870 census (Aug 9 1870), living with son Pleasant James and his wife in Yadkin County, North Carolina:ⁱ

Hannah Carter died Jun 22 1887, Surry (now Yadkin) County, North Carolina; ae 85; buried Friend's Deep Creek Church Cemetery, Yadkin County, North Carolina.^141,200
