Charles Oliver HINTON, my great grandfather, was the 8th of 9 sons born to Thomas HINTON (born abt. 1825 in England) and Selina O'NEILL (b. 24 Apr 1829 in Covey Hill, Canada). After their 1851 Quebec marriage, the couple settled in Mooers, New York, 2-3 miles from the Canadian border and O'Neill family home.

Huntingdon, Beauharnois & Châteauguay Protestant parish registers (available online) document many events pertaining to these allied families.
Names found of public record are used interchangeably.

(Hinton-Youngs Kleinert Collection)

MOTHER:   Celina/Selina O'NEILL
        Selina (aka Salina, Celina, Sallany) is the only daughter and oldest of 3 children born to William O'NEILL (b. Apr 1806 in Covey Hill, Quebec, Canada), and Abigail SHERMAN (b. abt. 1811 in Monongahela, Pennsylvania, or Connecticut). William was the youngest of 5 children and 3rd son born to James O'NEILL (b. in County Limerick or Northern Ireland), and Mary Margaret MCMULLEN (McMullin or McMullan) of Monaghan Twp, York Co., Pennsylvania. The grandfather, James O'Neill, came to North America as a British soldier in his young manhood prior to the Revolution. Salina O'NEILL had 2 younger brothers, James O'NEILL and Henry O'NEILL, and from her father's second marriage to Mary EDWARDS, a half-sister, Jane O'NEILL, and 3 half-brothers, Charles Edward O'NEILL, John O'NEILL, and William O'NEILL, who died in childhood.
        Celina wed at the age of 22, in Hemmingford Township (Wesleyan Methodist Congregations of Russelltown Circuit) Quebec, Canada, Thomas HINTEN. The couple had 9 sons, the youngest 18 months before her death.
        Celina O'Neill HINTON died 27 May 1874 in Mooers township, Clinton County, New York, aged 45.

FATHER:   Thomas HINTON
        Thomas and John are both cited as the given name of the father, commonly known as Thomas HINTON. His full name is likely John Thomas HINTON, but may be Thomas John HINTON. His parents (born in England) are unknown. The date of his emigration to North America and port of arrival are unknown, however, he was in Quebec, Canada, by 1841. In County Huntingdon, 10 October 1841, Thomas Hinton witnessed the baptism of twins born 21 April 1841 to Thomas HOUNSLOW and Louisa Baron HASTINGS of Montreal, Canada. (Baron may be Barron or Barren, surnames found in Chateauguay Valley parish records and Lovell's Montreal City directories.) Thomas Hounslow's occupation is: "royal engineer department."
        The 1851 marriage record of Thomas HINTON and Celina O'NEILL lists his residence as Hemmingford (QC) and occupation as yeoman. He was a farmer and landowner in Mooers, Clinton County, New York, 1860 and 1870 census. Widowed and "crippled or disabled" by 1880, Thomas resides in Mooers, NY, with 80 year-old farmer Abel TRYON, formerly his neighbor.
        Thomas HINTON died 14 May 1891 in the Block-house Settlement of Wilber township, Iosco County, Michigan, aged 68.

    Thomas Hinton Tom Hinton, Centerville, Iowa, date unknown
    (Hinton-Youngs Kleinert Collection)
  6. Thomas HINTON was born 1861 or 1862 in New York (likely, Mooers or Ellenburg, Clinton County). When and where he died is unknown. Whether he married or had children is unknown.
          In 1870, Thomas Hinton, age 8, attends school and resides with his parents, John (age 45) and Salina (age 41), and 6 of his 8 brothers in Mooers, Clinton Co. NY. (The oldest, Hiram, has gone missing and may be deceased; the youngest, Frank, is not yet born.). No other census enumerating Tom has surfaced.
          In 1884, Tom probably resides in Jackson, Michigan, as a Power of Attorney is there recorded for "Thomas Hinton of the city of Jackson," yet his signature is affixed thus: "Thomas (his X mark) Hinton."

    aka
    Frank W. Barr    		 Francis Hinton, aka Frank W. Barr

  9. Francis HINTON, born 11 Nov 1872 in Hemmingford, Quebec (more probably in Mooers, Clinton Co., New York) was less than 18 months old when his mother Selina O'NEILL HINTON died of typhoid. The widowed father Thomas HINTON, crippled by "rheumatism" and unable to tend the young sons, surrendered them to various families. Frank HINTON likely spent his pre-school childhood in more than one household. (He may be the unidentified little boy on the right in a portrait of the Henry O'Neill Family, circa 1875.) Informally adopted or in foster care, by 1881 Francis BARR, age 9, birthplace USA, is enumerated in the Hemmingford, Quebec, household of John Graham BARR and Elizabeth CLELLAND (married 03 Nov 1875) a line below the couple's 11-month-old son, Thomas BARR. John G. is first cousin to Jane BARR, who married in 1865 Frank's maternal uncle Henry O'NEILL, and died 14 Jan 1866, soon after birthing son, Henry Barr O'NEILL (pictured far left about age 10). The family connection perhaps waned, for in 1891, at age 19, Francis HINTON is a domestic enumerated with the same family in the Hemmingford household of Peter CHAUM, and listed now a line below 2-year-old Margaret BARR, daughter of John and Elizabeth. Not only has Frank's surname reverted, his religion has gone from Presbyterian to "Free Church." How much, if anything, the youth was told about his biological parents is unknown; the listed birthplace for both is "United States." Elizabeth CLELLAND BARR died 20 Aug 1894 and Lieut. Col. John G. BARR marries 25 Aug 1895 his young cousin Florence May CHURCHILL. The same year, 1895, Frank emigrates to the United States, where in the state of Massachusetts he is enumerated in 1900 Leominster, Worcester County, as Frank BARR, born in Canada. Age 27, he is a boarder, occupation cabinet maker, in the household of Charles POWERS, as is 28-year-old Canadian boarder, Charles CAMPBELL, a naturalized U.S. citizen. In 1902, Frank relinquishes all successions rights to the estates of his birth family, as did a few of his older brothers before him. From that time forward, Frank HINTON fades away and apparently is never seen or heard from again.

          Brother "Frank Hinton, whose whereabouts are unknown" is mentioned in the 1907 obituary of brother Allen.
    Frank William BARR born 11 Nov 1872 in Hemmingford, Quebec, Canada, married 22 Jul 1908 in Leominster, Worcester, Massachusetts, Matilda J. TANSEY, born December 1875 in Massachusetts, daughter of Patrick J. TANSEY and Catherine T. unknown (both born in Ireland).
       Frank & Tillie had 2 daughters:
    1. Katherine A. Barr, b. Abt. 1910 in Leominster, Worcester, Massachusetts.
    2. Frances M. Barr, b. 25 Aug 1913 in Leominster, Worcester, Massachusetts, d. 10 Jan 1996 in Leominster, Worcester, Massachusetts.

A special thanks to cousin Marilyn E. O. H. of Nova Scotia, Canada, who provided a copy of the 1902 "Sale of movable and immovable succession rights from Mr. Frank Hinton alias F. Barr to Mr. John O'Neil". Without those particulars, Francis Hinton (9th son) may never have been found.

O'Neill

Highland Regimental Soldier James O'NEILL, our emigrant grandfather, was born in Limerick or Northern Ireland to Irish Protestant parents James and Bridget O'Neill. Although educated for the ministry of the Church of England, he sailed to North America before the Revolution as a young musician in the British Army. He enlisted 27 Aug 1775 in His Majesty's Royal Regiment of Highland Emigrants 2nd Battalion (84th Regiment of Foot) commanded by Major John SMALL. Ordered at Head Quarters, Boston, Massachusetts, 12 June 1775, "By His Excellency The Honorable Thomas GAGE General and Commander in Chief of all His Majesty's Forces in North America," the corp was comprised primarily of men from the Mohawk Valley who had previously served in His Majesty's military corps. Major Small's Battalion headquartered at Halifax, Nova Scotia, and served as marines. Their duties included battle service from the shores of Lake Champlain to the cotton fields of South Carolina. United Kingdom correspondence archives document the dire conditions of this regiment, the need for clothing and the lack of food and essential supplies.
      At the end of Revolutionary War conflict, 1775-1781, defeated British forces and Loyalists had lost much more than the war. Their homes, lands, and valuables confiscated, colonists loyal to the Crown not only lost family, friends, and countrymen, they lost their newly-adopted homeland or birth land. Officers and gentry came first on the list of those wishing return passage to the British Isles. The no-less-noble of the King's men, enlisted men, volunteers, and families of modest means, void of funds and transportation homeward, took sanctuary in Canada and Nova Scotia. The promised land grants and compensation for losses took years and numerous formal pleas to obtain.
      The Treaty of Paris in 1783 officially ended the war. Meanwhile, for most British Loyalists and foot soldiers, the voluntary engagement resulted in involuntary hardship.
      Where our forefather James O'NEILL resided during that time may be undocumented, as no record of residence has surfaced. His youngest son when age 77, stated, "My father James O'Neill...served on the British side in the Revolution ...When he left, he came to Canada and lived some time at Odelltown and at Montreal."
      By 1790, James had "married in Pennsylvania" Mary Margaret MCMULLEN, daughter of Hugh MCMULLEN and Anne (surname unknown) of Monaghan township, York Co., Pennsylvania. The 1792 Will of Hugh MCMULLIN, lists daughter Mary, wife of "James O. Nail," as one of six children. She was, son William continued, "...either an Irish woman or of Irish parents." Thus, we surmise, she was born (about 1773) in Ireland or Pennsylvania.

A sister of M. M. McMullen, likely Jane MCMULLEN, married James BRISBIN (brother of William BRISBIN of Covey Hill, PQ) and "lived in Lake Champlain." (Lake Champlain may now be Champlain, Clinton County, New York.) Any information on this family would be appreciated.

O'Neill Descendants

  1. James O'NEILL, born in Limerick or Northern Ireland, likely Bet. 1750 - 1765, died (after 1832) in Covey Hill, Quebec, Canada, and is buried at Union Church Cemetery, Covey Hill, Huntingdon Co., Quebec, Canada. One document states his will is dated 1832. He married before 1790 in Pennsylvania, Mary Margaret MCMULLEN, b. 1773 in Ireland or Pennsylvania.
         James married 2nd Bet. 1835 - 1838, likely in Hemmingford, (unknown) SMITH of Hemmingford, PQ Canada, b. unknown, d. unknown. (No official record found.) Son William, mentions,"The first time I went to the city was when I was 13 years old. I went in company with my brother Henry and my stepmother...My stepmother's name was Smith, and she came from Hemmingford...."

    2.       Mary MCMULLAN and James O'NEILL had 5 children, Hugh, Thomas, Mary, Susanna, and William, the youngest three born on the 200-acre parcel granted by the British Crown.
    1. Hugh O'NEILL born May 1791 in Canada or the USA, (Monaghan, York County, Pennsylvania 1790 census, p. 378, lists James Oneill and Hugh McMullin), died 06 Nov 1879 in Covey Hill, Havelock, Quebec, Canada, and interred 07 Nov 1879, likely at Union Cemetery, Covey Hill. Occupations of record include carpenter, farmer, and mechanic. Hugh O'NEIL is listed on page 49 of "Canadian Veterans of the War of 1812," and as age 83 in 1875 in "Statement showing Militiamen of 1812-1815 who have applied to participate in the gratuity voted by Parliament in 1875."
            Hugh ONEIL, farmer, age 60, Presbyterian, born in Canada, is enumerated on the 1851 census in Hemmingford, Beauharnois County, Canada East (Quebec), as widowed. (No record of marriage has surfaced.) In 1871 Havelock, Huntingdon Co., Quebec census, Hugh ONEIL age 79, mechanic, Church of England, is born in U.S.A. and marital status is blank.
            On a light note, Hugh ranks this [rather spirited] December entry in William Edwards' Diary for 1854: "DEC - Wed 27 - Commenced making a wood sled. In the afternoon had Hugh O'Neil at it but he had rather much whiskey in him to be of much use."
            Parish books of the Presbyterian Church at Russelltown record Hugh's 1879 death and burial.
            DEATH NOTICE: The New Dominion, December 4, 1879: Died - At Covey Hill, on the 6th inst., Hugh O'Neill, aged 88 years and 6 months..
    2. Thomas O'NEILL was born Abt. 1793 in (place unknown). (Could be Pennsylvania USA, Odelltown or Montreal, Canada, or ?)
            One Thomas O'NEIL is listed on the "Final Estimate of Work Performed on Lock no 4, Beauharnois Canal. Appendix no 2, Paylist for men cutting Drains on Canal from 7th to 30 th Nov 1843 inclusive," and received wages for five days work. The construction of the Beauharnois Canal (now part of the St. Lawrence Seaway) began in 1842 and was completed in 1845.
            No official record of Thomas has surfaced.
    3. Mary O'NEILL b. Dec 1795 in Covey Hill, Hemmingford, Huntingdon, Quebec, d. 08 May 1871 in Covey Hill, Havelock Twp, Huntingdon Co., Quebec, Canada, and is buried at Union Cemetery, Covey Hill, Quebec, Canada. She never married.
            Mary's 1871 death is recorded in Quebec Protestant parish records.
    4. Susanna O'NEILL b. Jul 1802 in Covey Hill, Havelock, Huntingdon, Quebec, d. 29 Jan 1881 in Hemmingford, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. She is buried at Union Cemetery, Covey Hill, QC, and shares a tombstone with Jane Barr O'Neill, first wife of Susan's nephew Henry, .
            "Aunt Susan" pitched in after the death of her sister-in-law, Abigail Sherman, and helped her brother William raise his three motherless children. Celina had just turned six, James was not yet three, and Henry only eight weeks old. It must have seemed like déjà vu when 31 years later, Susan returned to tend the motherless babe of nephew Henry, whom she had coddled since his second month of life. For the next several years, she added another baby Henry to her list of to-do's and undoubtedly to her heartstrings.
            DEATH NOTICE: The New Dominion, February 17, 1881: "Died - At Hemmingford, on the 29th ult, at the residence of her nephew, H. O'Neill, Miss Susanna O'Neill, in her 79th year."

Her name and date of death (as above) are cited in an 1850 Deed of Sale between her sons Hugh and William.
