Alexander Hinson [Hanson/Henson] is listed here as born about 1652 in Virginia, son of George Hanson and Elinor. No source is identified for this.
He is currently assumed to have married twice, first to Mary Wood and then to Elizabeth [last name unknown].
An Alexander Hinson wrote his will on 2 Oct 1727 in Sittenbourne parish, King George County, Virginia Colony. In this will, he identifies his wife (unnamed) as executrix, and assigns items to her and to children Christopher, John, William and Ann. His will was probated on 7 June 1728 in King George County, by his wife Eliza.[1]
This indicates that the Alexander Hinson that died about 1728 in King George had spouse Eliza, and children Christopher, John, William and Ann.
Research Note
Presently Wikitree has a profile for another Alexander Henson, 1657-1727 Virginia, also listed as married to Mary Wood with children Christopher, William and Ann. However this profile has father Robert Henson, unsourced. If these are different persons with different parents, then these childen and spouses will need to be checked to be correctly assigned. Currently there appears to be some duplication or conflation of these families.
