SAMUEL HINEMAN born about 1837-1838 Indiana
I have been trying to identify this Samuel Hineman for a long time because I really think he is related to my Hineman family. I renewed my search after receiving a picture of a Samuel Hineman from another researcher who has ties to the McConnell side of the family.
Tonight, I think I have found another reason to believe he is related. Looking through the Hineman siblings of my Samuel Hineman (not this one, but could be his father) I noticed that Catherine Hineman (daughter of John Hineman, born about 1775 and Mary Unknown) who married David McConnell, had a son Phillip McConnell in Wayne Co., Indiana in 1838!
****UPDATE: Aaron caught an error I made above. Phillip McConnell was born in Wayne County, Indiana, but none of us have Jackson as the exact place. Sorry about that; I have removed that mention.
Well, this Samuel Hineman born about 1837/38 was born in Indiana, same time frame. Now, evidently none of these people stayed in Indiana very long. In fact, David and Catherine went to Wisconsin, as did this Samuel Hineman and my John Hineman, probably all about the same time, possibly together!
I think this Samuel Hineman is a brother to my John Hineman, son of Samuel Hineman. Since the McConnell’s and Hineman’s are known to have migrated together, why wouldn’t it make sense that Catherine’s brother, Samuel went to Indiana with her and her family?
Now, here is someone else I found in Jackson, Wayne Co., Indiana, but in 1840:
1840 Census
Name: Samuel McConnel
Township: Jackson
County: Wayne
State: Indiana
Males 1 under 5, 1 is 20-30, 1 is 30-40
Females 1 under 5, 1 is 20-30
I have no idea who he is, I don’t have a Samuel McConnell in my family tree, and I don’t really have enough information to track him down.
Now back to Samuel Hineman: Here he is in 1850, living with unrelated people near Daniel Hineman, son of the senior John and Mary Hineman, and my John Hineman, son of Samuel.
Not only that, I just noticed today that there is a “stray” Daniel Hineman, age 18 Ohio, living with Daniel and family. Since Daniel Hineman and Mary Ann Devolt didn’t marry until 1840, he can’t be their son. I suppose the senior Daniel could have been married prior, but I have no record of that. Does anyone else?
So if the younger Daniel Hineman is not theirs, whose is he? Not only that, there is the pauper, Mary Hineman next door, who was born about 1840, Ohio. Who does she belong to?
Why are there 3 Hineman children farmed out? Why is the senior Samuel and wife nowhere to be found? Did they die? I suspect that at least one of them did, possibly both of them, since I can’t find Samuel anywhere. Every Samuel I have checked turned out to belong to someone else.

**Seems unlikely if the other Daniel (age 18) was his son, he would name another son Daniel, although some people have done that on occasion.
I cannot locate the Samuel Hineman born 1838 IND on census records for 1860, 1870 or 1880.

Emeline McConnel was married to William Henry Harrison Bedell. Her sister, Adaline was married to Alonzo McKoon, then John Tague Compton. Samuel Hineman gave his picture to Alonzo and Adaline’s daughter, Alice Elizabeth McKoon.
Emeline (McConnell) Bedell’s daughters, Emma and Minnie both married Compton’s, and another daughter, Lydia, married John H. Tait/Tate.
*****************
Samuel Hineman must have died between 1905 and 1910, probably in Sauk Co., Wisconsin, because I can’t find him on the 1910 census. He is NOT listed in the pre-1907 Wisconsin death records on Ancestry.
In fact, the only Hineman listed in the 1820 to 1907 WI death records for Sauk County, is Margaret A. Hineman, which should be Margaret Ann Devolt. For some reason, I have her place of death listed as Willow Twp., Richland Co., Wisconsin.
Margaret A Hineman 26 Mar 1895 Sauk
For Richland County, they have this:
Mrs Daniel Hindman 23 Mar 1895 Richland
Hmm… Which one is correct?
