History of Greene County, Pennsylvania

LINDSEY HINERMAN, farmer and stock-grower, was born June 16, 1828, on the farm he now owns in Aleppo Township, Greene County, Penn. He is a son of George and Mary (McConnell) Hinerman, who were of German and Irish ancestry. His grandfather, George Hinerman, was a British soldier, but remained in this country. He was, like many other members of the family, a farmer. Mr. Hinerman’s father came from Millsborough, Washington County, Penn., to Greene County in 1832, where he spent his life as a farmer and died in 1876. Lindsey is the fifth in a family of eight children. He was reared on the farm and attended the subscription schools. He has made farming his main pursuit and owns 167 acres of valuable land, well stocked and improved. Our subject was employed on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad from 1848 to 1853. In May, 1853, Mr. Hinerman married Miss Elizabeth, daughter of Jacob and Mary (Whipkey) Slonaker. Their children are M. S., Martha J., wife of John Tasker; Sarah, wife of H. Wise; Emeline, wife of Sherman W. S. McCracken; David, Mary, J. W. H. and Ellsworth. Mr. Hinerman is a Republican.
