He died in 1815. He had a son John Hines. All research seems to stop at this particular John Hines. Has anyone gotten past my 5th great grandfather? If so, could you please tell me where to look? The last information I have is that he came from Virginia. Some people have uploaded information saying that he was sent over on a convict ship in 1775, but if his birthdate is correctly 1776, this is not possible. Any help would be appreciated.
