Biography

Mary Ann Hinton was born in 1634 or 1635 in Jamestown, James City County, Virginia. Her father, John Hinton, was NOT the British gentleman, Sir John Hinton, royal physician, but rather was already in Jamestown VA by 1624 as he was on the 1624 "muster" there. He was most-likely a cousin of Sir Dr. John Hinton as the family was a large and important one in the county of Wiltshire, England. Mary Ann's mother was Susan Dilke, daughter of Clement Dilke, also on the 1624 Jamestown muster. The Dilke family intermarried with the Hintons as both were Presbyterian-leaning Protestants.

A recognized source on early Virginia immigrants states that:[1]

"On February 16, 1624, John Hinton was living in urban Jamestown in the household of Clement Dilke, a Burgess (CBE 38)."

Mary Ann Hinton married Capt. Thomas Halliday (Holladay, Holiday) in either London or Virginia in 1655. Her eldest son, William, was born between in London ca. 1655/56. She also had sons, Thomas, Anthony and John Marshall Halliday.

Mary Ann Hinton Halliday died on September 13, 1696, in Virginia (although some sources say Gloucestershire, England).[2]

Why is the narrative about the daughter? Also, Kathie Forbes posted the following on g2g:

"There is no evidence that John Hinton had any descendants. He isn't included in Dorman's "Adventurers of Purse and Person," in the list of qualifying Jamestowne Society ancestors, or in McCartney's "Virginia Immigrants and Adventurers" with any family. He seems to only exist in that one statement that he was alive at the muster. None of the other men named Hinton in Jamestown (Anthony, Elias, Thomas, and Tillman) had a daughter named Mary Ann. Only Thomas had any recorded children that I can find."

But, to conflict with my earlier comment, DAR research from 1915 shows the Hintons & Hollidays linking up in 1730-35.

Researcher Linda Cox shows Mary Ann as the widow of Col. John Hinton in her summary of records on Thomas Halliday / Holladay.
