David built The Oaks plantation in c1790 and it was considered for the site of the State Capitol. In 1830, The Oaks consisted of 2,244 acres worked by 13 slaves. The Oaks is located at 4516 Clifton Road in Knightdale. It is still in use today and is part of a working farm. The house is on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

As a member of the US Black Heritage Project, I have added a list of the slaves owned by David Hinton on this profile with categories using the standards of the US Black Heritage Exchange Program. This helps us connect enslaved ancestors to their descendants. See the Heritage Exchange Portal for more information.

Hinton-1850 and Hinton-277 do not represent the same person because: Both men were born about the same time period and lived in North Carolina; however one's given name is noted as Davis and the other as David. A given name of Davis could be taken from a mother, grandmother, or great grandmother with the surname of Davis. So Davis very well is not a typo for the given name of David. Just not enough is known to say they are the same person. Jim Miller

Hinton-1850 and Hinton-277 appear to represent the same person because: The Wake Co., NC, will of David (sic) Hinton names "grandchildren Jane, William & Willis Miller, children of my deceased daughter Isabella W. Miller."
posted by Sarah Sharpless
Hinton-1016 and Hinton-277 appear to represent the same person because: These are the same. Hinton-277 parents are John Hinton and Kimbrough
This David Hinton (Jr.) [Hinton-277] has the same dates as his alleged father, David Hinton (Sr.) [Hinton-1016]. Would it be possible to unlink "Jr." from Sr. and then merge the two?
posted by Sarah Sharpless
Hinton-1756 and Hinton-1042 appear to represent the same person because: David Hinton (b. 1770), son of John Hinton, married Jane Lewis (daughter of Howell Lewis), 13 Nov 1790, Granville Co., NC.
posted by Sarah Sharpless
It is possible that James and David were the sons of John Hinton/Grizelle, not his brothers.
