Private Thomas Hinton Jr served with Upper Battalion, Montgomery County Militia, Maryland Militia during the American Revolution.
Thomas Hinton Jr is a DAR Patriot Ancestor, A204465.
Thomas Hinton, variously called either senior or junior, was born in Maryland around 1719. The DAR lists his year of birth as c. 1715, but his parents were not wed until 1718. He was the eldest son of Thomas and Rachael (Howard) Hinton. Some time before 1736, he married Rebecca, maiden name uncertain (other genealogies suggest Wilson). On March 27, 1756, his namesake father sold him the 100 acre "resurvey on Saplin Ridge" in Frederick County, which had been founded in 1748. He served with his namesake son in the 5th Company of the Upper Battalion of the Montgomery County, Maryland, Militia, during the American Revolution. Montgomery County was formed from Frederick County in 1776. The 1790 Census shows him with his wife, one other adult man, and one adult woman. He died shortly after this.

It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Thomas:
The information on theDNA confirmation statement isnt sufficient to support triangulation on WikiTree. The size of the shared segment is less than 7 cM. Please read the triangulation instructions for WikiTree here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Triangulation It includes this statement: Three or more cousins need to all match each other on a single segment of DNA that is at least 7cM long.
Hinton-429 and Hinton-136 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same parents, same birth and death dates, same siblings, same spouse (last names confused), same children. I chose to keep Hinton-136 as it was initiated in 2011 and Hinton-429 was initiated in 2014
