Hi!I only have 1 child of Peggy and John - John Jr.
I have 12 children for John Jr and Margaret.Also was told by a descendant, "John HINKSON, Margaret Ewalt HINKSON, and four of their children (Rebecca Jane, Amanda, Humphrey and Henry) are buried in the Hinkson Cemetery, Lewis Co., MO."
For John being the son of John Sr i have this for documentation: (in part) John Hinkson's son, John, Jr., also recounts this journey:
"(John Hinkson) moved to Kentucky in Spring of '80, four or five boats came with him with about half a dozen families, stopped at Limestone about a week, built a block-house, the first erected there, and sent a message to his old station (better known as Ruddell's) to get help to aid in moving the families over, and while waiting at Limestone the Indians stole all the horses belonging to the company - some 20 in all - At the old station there was not a sufficiency of men to share, and advised a continuation to the Falls of Ohio.
From Biography of Col John Hinkston
Does any of this help?
