Biography of Henry Hines, pages 656 / 657.  History of De Kalb County, 
Indiana.  Inter-State Publishing Company, Chicago, 1885.

Henry Hines, Justice of the Peace, Jackson Township, was born in Ashland 
County, Ohio, April 1, 1839, a son of Francis and Lovina (Culler) Hines.  
In 1844 he parents moved to Kosciusko County, Ind., where the father died in 
1877, and the mother still lives on the old homestead.  Our subject lived 
with his parents till his marriage to Sarah Abigail Smith, Feb. 6, 1858.  
She was born in Medina County, Ohio, April 8, 1838.  The year following 
their marriage they came to De Kalb County and settled in Jackson Township, 
and began making a farm out of a tract of heavily timbered land.  They now 
have a fine farm of 160 acres, eighty acres and their residence being on 
section 11, and eighty acres on section 10, all cleared by frugality and 
good management.  Mr. Hines is a man of sterling character, and upright, 
independent action, and his worth was soon recognized by his fellow-townsmen, 
who placed him in the front in township affairs.  He is now serving his third 
term as Justice of the Peace.  His honorable dealings coupled with a strong 
sense of right and justice to all, make him especially fitted for this 
position.  In politics he acts with the Democratic party.  Mr. and Mrs. 
Hines have six children---Lillie Louise, wife of James H. Farver, of 
Kosciusko County, Ind.; Francis M., Wesley L., Leonard A., Lovina And 
Effie A.
