Charlton's last two wives and kids:
Married Feb 9, 1809 to Ann Beard (called Mrs. Bell
from a previous marriage to William F. Bell)
Ann's parents were Mathew Beard and Sarah Hurst Bell (hmmm)
children:
Robert C. Hines b. Aug/Sept 1810 who married a Joanna
Hancock and later a Mary Rebecca Butler
(What offspring?)
Charlton b 1812 died soon after
Sarah Jane Way b 1819-20? married Oct 24(27?), 1855
Children:
James E. Hines b May/June 1860 married Josephine Way(?)
J. Charlton Hines (Charley) b 1857-8 married Willie Gunn
(What offspring?)
Most of what I have came from the Univ. Geo. Libraries.
Also FYI Charlton was a State Senator during the years:
1828 to 1832 and 1836-37-43.
The 1820 census shows him with 26 slaves
1830 census shows him as a planter with 72 slaves
and gives their average ages.
1840 census shows him as a planter with 73 slaves
and gives their average ages.
There were two "plantations" listed belonging to Lewis
Hines (Charlton's bro):
Silkhosse(?) (Silk House?) and Belmont
These came from a will that had 77 slaves listed by
name and value for Silhosse and 41 for Belmont dated Jan 19, 1841.
I wish I had a list of Charlton's slaves names.......and what
happened to him and his sons during the war(Civil War)....
did they fight or were they exempt from the war? I
want to know their offspring and maybe if there was a
son that may have been the Black sheep of the family.....
I think my ties are with Robert C. Hines as I have a Great
Uncle named Robert Hines...but who knows.....and where to look?
