Hinkle - Jane Randal - Montgomery InGenWeb Project

Mrs. Jane Hinkle died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. John Wright, near Whitesville, April 18, 1895, after two years of great suffering. Her home had been with her daughter for eleven years. Her patience in her trials was great. She had been a helpless invalid for two years. Her daughter and husband’s care and devotion can only be rewarded by the promise to they that honor father and mother.

Jane Randal was born in 1832 and in 1852 was married to Simon Hinkle. Five children were born to them, three sons and two daughters. Two sons are now living in the west. Her youngest daughter, Mollie, preceded her mother a few years to that better land.

She united with the Christian Church in 1850 and was an earnest and faithful Christian until death. She was left a widow in 1868 and by her untiring industry and patience raised her family to be honorable men and women. Her funeral was preached at Whitesville by Rev. Johnson. Her four sisters, a son and daughter with many relatives and friends followed her remains to the Harshbarger Cemetery.
