LAW OF MARRIAGE IN PENNSYLVANIA.

In the Philadelphia quarter sessions, on the 14th inst., in the matter of the application of the guardians of the poor for an order on Samuel Nathans to give security for the maintenance of his wife and two chldren, Judge Parsons delivered an opinion by which it was decided that said Nathans was married according to the laws of Pennsylvania, to Mrs. Nathans. — There had been no ceremony performed, but the parties had lived together as man and wife, and the defendant had treated the complainant as a wife in the presence of acquaintances. This opinion establishes that in Pennsylvania, marriage is a civil contract, and as such may be proved by admissions and acts of the parties without the necessity of any particular ceremony.

Amy was the daughter of Miles Leroy Hineman and Elizabeth Ann Rowan.

She was born 30 Jun 1896, in Tomah, Wisconsin. She married Earl Benjamin Scott and moved to Eau Claire Co., Wisconsin. Earl was born 16 May 1891 and lived in Augusta.

-From the Tomah Journal, 02 Oct 1914

A quiet wedding took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. M.L. Hineman of the town of Tomah on Thursday, Sept. 24th, when their youngest daughter Amy was united in marriage to Mr. Earl Scott of Augusta. The ceremony was performed at noon by Rev. Jonathan G. Smith of the Congregational church. Only the immediate relatives of the contracting parties were present. A wedding dinner was served and the newly wedded couple took the afternoon train for La Crosse. They intended to go from there to Milwaukee but were called back next day by the death of a nephew of the bride. They left Tuesday for Augusta where they will make their home, Mr. Scott being engaged in the moving picture business there. We join with the bride’s many friends in wishing them happiness and prosperity.

NOTE: The nephew mentioned was Virgil Frederick Hineman, son of Ralph W. Hineman, Amy’s brother. He died from TB, as did the wife (Bessie Martin, died Aug 1914) of Amy’s oldest brother, Gardie.

Robert Scott

AUGUSTA : Robert Scott, 86, of E19110 County Road N, Augusta, passed away at his home Wednesday morning, May 30, 2007.

Robert Miles Scott, son of Earl and Amy (Hineman) Scott, was born January 16, 1921, in Scott?s Valley, rural Augusta. At the age of 2, he moved into the city of Augusta, where he attended grade school and graduated from Augusta High School. He was united in marriage to Loradean “Eny” Harke on February 7, 1940, in Cresco, Iowa. The couple lived all their married life in Augusta. During WW II, Bob served in the U.S. Marine Corps in the Pacific Theatre, stationed mainly in China. Bob had been employed in Eau Claire by Dolly Madison Dairies and Gillette Tire Company before taking a job with Northern States Power Company in 1950. During his 32 years of employment with NSP, he worked as a ground man, lineman and eventually as the district manager in the Augusta office. Since February of 2006, he had enjoyed making his home with his son and daughter-in-law in Ludington Township, rural Augusta.

Bob took pride in his community, and throughout his life volunteered his time for the betterment of Augusta. For many years he had been a member of the Augusta-Bridge Creek Fire Dept., where he had served as secretary-treasurer. In the 1960s, during the construction years of the elementary school, he had served on the Augusta School Board. He also served on the Augusta Nursing Home Building Committee and eventually on the Nursing Home Board. Since 1950, he was a member of Grace Lutheran Church in Augusta, where he served in various capacities. He served on the Augusta Cemetery Board, and was an active member and officer with the Augusta Lions Club, American Legion, and past commander of the Augusta VFW Post. He was a member of the Eau Claire County Conservation League, and during this time was instrumental in establishing the Eau Claire County Public Hunting Grounds and Coon Fork Lake. While working for NSP, he became a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Union, and in 1970 was awarded the Citizen of the Year for NSP.

Bob enjoyed the time he spent coaching girls softball teams and being involved with his children and grandchildren?s activities. He was an avid deer hunter, and looked forward to the annual family hunts. He also enjoyed fishing, playing cards, pool and bowling.

He is survived by his son, William and Kathryn Scott; daughter-in-law, Lynda Scott; brother, Allen and Elaine Scott; and sister, Rose and Don Grams, all of Augusta; four grandchildren, Jon Scott, Michelle (Don) Wade, all of Kenosha, David (Lisa) Scott of Omro and Richard (Kristine) Scott of Sherwood; nine great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Eny, on October 26, 1990; son, Larry Scott, on December 9, 2003; and siblings, Elizabeth Campbell, June Cain, Kathryn Hanson, Richard Scott and infant brother, John Scott.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 2, 2007, at Grace Lutheran Church in Augusta. Burial, with military rites conducted by the Augusta VFW and American Legion, will be held in the East Lawn Cemetery, Augusta.

Friends may call from 4 to 8 p.m. on Friday at the Anderson Funeral Home in Augusta, and one hour prior to services Saturday at the church.

In lieu of flowers, memorials can be given to the Augusta VFW Post, Augusta Lions Club or Augusta Cemetery Association.

I would love to hear from any descendants of Earl Scott and Amy Hineman, and am hoping they might be able to provide more information and/or pictures, especially of the Hineman family. Amy’s brother Gardie, was my great-grandfather, and I don’t have any pictures of him or his first wife, Olive Bessie Martin.

Amy had a sister, Pearl, who lived in Augusta as well. Pearl was married to Ralph W. Bowen, and from what I can tell, they never had any children of their own. However, according to one census record, my grandfather, Nathan Hineman was living with them shortly after his mother died from TB.

Any info would be appreciated!

Looking for information on this couple and their families:

Elizabeth PARK married John HINEMAN on 12 May 1747 in Voluntown, Windham Co., Connecticut.

Two Are Killed In Road Mishaps (not Wesley)
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Wyoming’s 1962 highway fatality toll climbed to 116 over the weekend with the deaths of a 78-year-old Sheridan woman and a 15-year-old Douglas boy. The toll was 123 on the same date one year ago. The latest victim was Mrs. Anna Hughes. The Wyoming Highway patrol said she was killed in a car-pedestrian accident just north of Sheridan’s business district on main street Sunday evening. James L. Frye was killed Saturday when a car in which he was riding rolled over him after going off State Highway 5? [50 or 58] at the edge of Douglas. Two other Douglas teen-agers were injured in the one-car accidents. They were Terry Jones, 15, the driver, and Wesley Hineman, 14. Jones had a broken ankle and Hineman suffered a broken arm, broken leg and possible internal injuries, the Wyoming Highway Patrol reported. The boys were headed into Douglas when the car went off the road and rolled. All three were tossed out, with the car striking Frye and Hineman.

*****
Virgil Frederick, fourth son of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hineman, aged 5 yrs. 4 mos., died on Friday, Sept. 25. He had been ill for about six weeks with a tubercular trouble affecting the bones of one of his limbs and was taken to the Tomah hospital for treatment. His strength was unequal to the strain and after being in the hospital eight days he died there last Friday evening. The funeral took place Monday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock from the home of his parents, conducted by Rev. J.G. Glaeser of the Lutheran church, and the burial was at Oak Grove cemetery. Sincere sympathy is extended to the parents and family in their bereavement.

-From the Tomah Journal, 02 Oct 1914

*****
Virgil Frederick Hineman, aged 5 years, 4 months and 27 days, and fourth son of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hineman, of the town of Tomah, died at the hospital here Friday night, Sept. 25th.

A little over a week ago he was taken to the hospital for an operation for tuberculosis of the bone. He had suffered constantly for seven weeks, and the disease finally affected the brain, causing death.

The cause of the disease was, probably a slight injury received while at play.

The funeral was held Monday at the home 4 miles south of the city, Rev. Glaeser officiating. Interment was made in the new addition to Oak Grove cemetery.

Directly below the obituary:

Miles L. Hineman - 1921 - Wisconsin Blue Book

My great-great grandfather:

Miles Leroy Hineman

Born: 26 Nov 1851 in Dane County, Wisconsin

Died: 01 Aug 1930 in La Crosse County, Wisconsin.

Son of John Hineman and Harriet Cary

John Hineman, born abt 1828 PA – died 29 Jul 1857 in Monroe Co., WI

John Hineman’s father was Samuel Hineman, mother Unknown.

Harriet Carey/Cary, born 28 Oct 1825 in Hanover, Luzerne Co., PA – died 01 Aug 1907 in Tomah, Monroe Co., WI.

Harriet’s father was Benjamin Cary, born about 1803, Hanover, Luzerne Co., PA – died abt 1871 in Wisconsin, probably in Tomah, Monroe County, as he was living there in 1870.

Her mother was Jane Smiley, born abt 1803 PA – died abt 1872, Monroe Co., WI.

John and Harriet were married 08 Apr 1847 in Fulton, Rock Co., Wisconsin

————————————————

Miles Leroy Hineman married Elizabeth Ann “Lizzie” Rowan 05 Nov 1879 in Tomah, Monroe Co., Wisconsin.

Lizzie, was born Dec 1860, in Monroe Co., WI, was the daughter of Thomas Rowan and Sarah McMullen, both born in Ireland.

—————————————–

Miles and Lizzie had the following children:

Miles Gardner Hineman: b: 30 Sep 1880 Tomah, Monroe, WI -  (Gardie Hineman)

Ralph W Hineman: b: 07 May 1882                   “                  “

Pearl Hineman: b: Aug 1885                                  “                  “

Ruby L  Hineman: b: 11 Apr 1891                       “                  “

Amy Louise Hineman: b: 30 Jun 1896           “                  “

Glen Wellyn Hineman: 01 Sep 1902                “                  “

——————————————-

Gardie is my direct line:

Gardie Hineman married Olive Bessie Martin 05 Nov 1910 in Minot, Ward Co., ND. They had one son, Nathan Hineman, born 15 Aug 1912 in Monroe Co., WI. Bessie died in 1914 from TB, leaving Nathan and another young son, Ladoit “Dick”  Houston, from a previous marriage.

Gardie next married Frances Adams (Adamski,) 28 Dec 1916 in Minot, Ward Co., ND. They moved to Omaha, Nebraska sometime before 1920.

—————————————–

Ralph W. Hineman married Emma B Pingel on 11 May 1904, in Wilton, Monroe, Wisconsin. They had 8 children: Leslie, Gerald, Virgil, Laura, Avery, Gertrude and Wesley. They also moved to Omaha, Nebraska, sometime in the 1920’s.

—————————————–

Pearl Hineman married Ralph W. Bowen on 05 Nov 1905 in Monroe Co., WI. They had no children. Gardie’s son, Nathan, evidently lived with them for an unknown period of time around 1920, as he appears on the census with them, and I found a mention of  him in an Eau Claire Co., WI newspaper, which is where Pearl and Ralph were living at the time. I think Pearl and Ralph may have lived in the Chicago, IL area around 1910,  but then returned to the Augusta area.

——————————————

Ruby L. Hineman married William Ernst Gerke on 28 Nov 1909 in Wisconsin. They had 7 children: Harold, Raymond, Miles, Pearl, Allen, Howard and Maxine. They stayed in Wisconsin.

——————————————-

Amy Louise Hineman married Earl Benjaman Scott about 1914, probably in WI. Amy and Earl had 8 children: Elizabeth, June, Allen, Robert, Katherine, Rose, Richard and John. They lived in the Augusta, Eau Claire Co., WI area.

——————————————-

Glen Wellyn Hineman married Florence Caroline Mackey about 1924.  They had 2 sons, Earl Raymond, born in Wisconsin, and James Miles, born in Minnesota. It appears they were divorced, as Glen was living in North Dakota in 1930, and later, ended up in Blaine, Montana, while Florence was still in Minnesota, living with her parents in 1930.

———————————–

This is just an outline of the Miles Leroy Hineman family. I will be posting more information on the various children and related families in separate posts.

If you are related to any of these people,  or think there might be some connection, feel free to leave me a comment; I would love to hear from you.

Thompson A. Hineman was the son (and youngest child) of Alexander Hineman and Amanda Jane Ewing.

Because he was born in 1881, Thompson does not appear on any census record with his parents, however they are listed on his death record.

Something I noticed on the 1880 census: There was a Thompson family living near the Alexander Hineman family. Not sure if there is ANY connection at this point, but something I will try to research further.

Okay, on to what I have found so far: Thompson seems to have been a bit of a delinquent. According to the 1900 census, he was an inmate in a reformatory.

NEW PRISONERS RECEIVED — Guard Anderson brought to the reformatory from Lisbon, Columbia [sic.] County, Charles Nelson, Edward Hanselman and Thompson Hineman.

Evidently, he was quite the crafty fellow:

Now, for his wives, Flora Unknown and Dessie D. Straight (Hawkins) :

I haven’t been able to find Flora on another census, so I don’t know if they had any children or not.

SECOND WIFE: Dessie D. Straight, born 09 Apr 1890, Marion Co., WV, daughter of:

William E. Straight, born 13 Apr 1868 WV, died 24 Dec 1936,  Mannington, Marion Co., West Virginia

and  (married 05 Jul 1889, Marion Co., WV)

Mergie L. John[s], born 30 Jul 1870 PA. , died 18 Nov 1935, Mannington, Marion Co., West Virginia

*****

Dessie D. Straight was first married to Charles Jasper Hawkins, on 04 Mar 1909. They had two children; a son, Merle, born about 1909 PA, and Julita M., born abt 1911 WV. Evidently, they divorced sometime before 1917.

Thompson Hineman and Dessie (Straight)  Hawkins were married on 24 Dec 1917 in Fairmont, Marion Co., WV.

This marriage probably didn’t last very long as Dessie went back to using the Hawkins surname.

I can’t find Thompson anywhere, under any name variation in 1930, but he should have been in East Liverpool, Columbiana Co., OH, I would think. He died there 28 Jul 1941.

Dessie Straight Hawkins Hineman Hawkins died 16 Aug 1936 in Marion Co., WV.

As an aside, I think this is Dessie’s father in 1930:

** Ancestry is being funny and won’t load any census images right now, so I can’t check to see the name of the  facility/prison or whatever. I had looked at it before, but didn’t make a note of the name.

Here are the census records for the Tait family. Lydia Bedell, daughter of William H. Bedell and Emeline McConnell married John H. Tait, who appears to be the son of John Tait and Margaret Unknown.  I am not sure what happened to his parents, but he and his brother were living with their Uncle Thomas Tait Jr. in 1880.

**I have no proof this is the correct John Tait, other than the census records, but I think this information is correct.

NOTE: Irma R. Otto, who married Beaulard Jay Compton, son of Gilbert Morton Compton and Minnie Bedell, lived near the Tait family. Her parents were Charles P Otto and Frances A Unknown.

UPDATE:

Here is something I forgot to add, more for amusement than anything else, although I think is is probably referring to Thoms Tait Jr., based on the time period. If it was him, the guy he beat with a brick must have pulled through.

On Friday night last Thomas Tait, who resides about five miles from the village of Reedsburg, while under the influence of liquor got into an altercation with a young man from southern Minnesota by the name of Commody, and struck him with a brick from the effects of which he cannot recover. Tait is under arrest.

Stevens Point Journal, The (Stevens Point, Wisconsin) 14 Sep 1878

**I used google map to see how far Reedsburg was from Ironton, and it showed a distance of  about 8 miles or so.

I am posting this information regarding Alexander Hindman/Hineman to show his connection to John and Mary (McConnell) Hineman, who were his parents.

West Virginia Death Record - cropped

This is the left portion of the death record which lists the name of parents and  the informant. Informant was Alexander’s daughter, Kathrine Elsina Hineman Wern, who went by Ella. **see her death record further down.

West Virginia Death Record -cropped

Birth: 04 Nov 1831 PA

Death: 25 Jun 1917 – Clay, Hancock Co., WV

*****************

Daughter Kathrine Elzina (Hineman) Wern:

West Virginia Death Record - cropped

Parents: Alexander Hineman and Amanda Ewing

Informant: Thomas Wern

***********************

Now, on to Edward McConnell Hineman (aka Eddo, Eddy, Mac, Mack) and his twin sister, Edna Myrtle.

Once again, I have cropped the image in pieces to make it easy to see the important information.

West Virginia Birth Record 1871 - Hancock Co.

This is indexed as Eldis McC  Hindman, but if you compare the last letter of his first name to other “s” on the same document, you can tell it is not an “s”. I think it is an “e” for Eddie, even though it does look different from the “e” at the end of Myrtle. In addition, Nancy too a look at it too, and noticed the “M” in McC looks like a “W” until you compare it to other ones on the page, plus it does look like the “M” in Myrtle.

Now, for the parents:

West Virginia Birth Record 1871 - cropped

NOTE: On the original image, the father and mother are listed next to each other, but I cropped and moved Amanda’s part so it would fit  better in this post. Notice it says she had 2 babies, so twins. The parents for Edna Myrtle were left blank, but then the parents of the child below them was accidentally put there, then erased, so that is what you see.

*************

I also found the following marriage information (which I posted previously) for Alexander and Amanda:

Hancock Co., WV GENWEB has name listed as Alexancer HINDERMAN to Amanda Jane EWING, 14 Aug 1856. Source listed as Marcie McClelland.

I have checked the WV vitals, but I can’t seem to pull up marriage records for anyone in 1856, so they must not have them on there yet.
