His widowed mother--"In order to survive," says a Hinkle family history--married a soldier from Fort Washington in 1793 [Gabriel Hutchings] and moved away, after distributing her six children among relatives and sympathetic Covalt Station neighbors.
Killed by Indians along with Capt. Covalt at the Colvalt Settlement where Terrace Park, Ohio now sits.
