REV. HENRY HINE, Husband of Amelia Burnett
Henry Hine was a son of John Hine, an Excise Officer in the Midland Counties in England, born about 1780. John Hine’s parents died when he was young, and he was reared by his grandfather, a farmer owning more than one farm. John Hine married Elizabeth Price, daughter of Mr. Price of Warwick, England, and had four sons, of whom Henry was the eldest. Henry Hine was born 8 August 1812, at Bellbroughton, Staffordshire, England. After a suitable education he was ordained a Wesleyan minister, and served the church for sixty-four years. His first charge was as Assistant Pastor in Aberdeen, and there he met Amelia Burnett. But love finally triumphed, as is shown by the following entry in the family Bible: “22 August 1839, at Friendville, Aberdeen, by the Revd. George Morison, of Banchory Ternan, near Aberdeen, Great Uncle of the Bride, the Reverend Henry Hine, Wesleyan Minister, Aberdeen, to Amelia, eldest daughter of the late Robert Burnett, Writer to the Signet, Edinburgh.” At this time Henry was twenty-seven years of age and Amelia was twenty-two. During his long ministry, it was his privilege to preach the gospel in more than a dozen different cities and towns of the United Kingdom. When advancing age compelled Henry Hine’s retirement, he and Amelia found a peaceful refuge near the home of his son Frederick, and here they “fell asleep,” he on 27 January 1899, and she on 13 April of the same year. They lie side by side in Smithdown Road Cemetery, Liverpool, and their memory is honored by their many descendants throughout the world, and by all who knew them.
