Hinds Genealogy

HINDS GENEALOGY

          I got all excited at the end of last year (2022) thinking I had traced the Hinds Family back to England.  I decided to do a little research of my own.  I went to FamilySearch.com and looked up William H. Hinds born in Tennessee.  Guess What???  I found him!!!  There he was!!!  What a let down for me when I started looking at his family records.  The dates I had for him were there and matched.  The problem was there was a thirty year gap between his older brother James and him.  How could the records be correct? 
          Fast forward to July of 2023.  I am on face book and come across the name Tim Hinds.  I look at his picture and it's not a familiar face.  I have a cousin Tim Hinds and that isn't his picture!  I decide to contact this Tim Hinds and see if he has family information that would show we are related.  At first he didn't think so. He said his Hinds Family shows up in New Jersey Colony British Colonial America.  His family moved to North Carolina Colony and then on in to Tennessee.  That information is what caught my eye.  My great great grandpa William H. Hinds was born in Tennessee.  Tim sent me a link to a site where his family genealogy was posted, FamilySearch.com.  I was very skeptical to go and look at the site.  It was a very familiar one.  That is the site I went to back in 2022 to look up my great great grandpa.  How could this search be any different????  Guess What???  William H. Hinds was there listed as William Henry Hinds.  The family record had been modified.  He was with the same family, but there were two more children born between him and his brother James.  Even after that search I decided to go back and write down what I had found.  The family record had changed again.  The last search I did on my great great grandpa goes back to England to a Robert Hinds. My problem now is I am not sure my line starts with Robert Hinds of England.  I have received some new information from a Sharon Hinds Mixon that lives outside of Claremore, Ok.  There has been a family story going around for years about  my Hinds family began in Ireland and Scotland.  First moved to France and then on to England.  I never had the names of the two brothers who left England for British Colonial America until Sharon gave me the names.  William Hinds, Jr. and John William Hinds.  Please, make sure when doing research on these sites that the records being posted has documentation to back it up.  The records can be modified by any family member.  Since I am not sure which brother from France came to England is my line from I will choose to begin with my

WHEN WAS THE MESSIAH BORN?

It is only natural for a person to adhere to conducts and beliefs that are biblically defensible.    Be ready always to give an answer to every man  that  asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear."   (1 Peter 3:15).                                 Christmas celebrations are generally observed to honor the supposed date of the birth of the Messiah.  But the facts are that Christ was not born on December 25.        " Christmas . . . was, according to many authorities, not cele-brated in the first centuries of the Christian church, as the Christian usage in general was to celebrate the death of remarkable persons, rather than the birth of Christ. ("Christmas",  Encyclopedia Americana).  How then, did the Romish Church fix on December 25th as Christmas-day?  Why, thus: long before the fourth century, a...

THE BOOK OF REVELATION

Many people stay away from the Book of Revelation because they find the symbolism frightening or confusing, or both!  But the Book of Revelation was meant to be a book of comfort to those caught up in the persecution at the end of the first century, says Ms Frances Taylor.  Christians in "Rome" had been blamed by Nero I for destroying much of the city.  They were often called "cannibals" because of their Eucharistic celebrations where they shared the "body and blood of Christ."  (they symbolically used bread and fruit of the vine for the body and blood.)   Domitian was another Emperor who persecuted the Christians at the end of the century; he was most likely the emperor who earned the designation "666".  The number 7 is very often mentioned in this book, which is the number that symbolizes completion and when in threes, God.  Domitian was considered the Satan, who clamed to be God, and fell short for the Christian, the greater danger was the los...

THE LIFE OF SAUL/PAUL

            Paul was born a Jew of the tribe of Benjamin.  He was also a Roman Citizen.  He was born in the Roman City of Tarsus.  In those days people had dual names.  Before he was known as apostle Paul, he was known as Saul of Tarsus.  Saul was his Hebrew name, Paul was his Roman name.  As Saul before his conversion he sought out the believers in Jesus.  He would hunt them down, bind them up and take them to Jerusalem to be killed.  Jesus did not change his name at his conversion.            Saul went to the high priest asking for letters to allow him entry into the synagogues at Damascus, so he could hunt down men and women that professed to be believers in Jesus. As he began his journey, he traveled down the road to Damascus.  As he drew near to the city, suddenly a light from heaven shone around him.  He fell to the ground and he heard a voice saying, "Saul, Saul why are t...
