John G. HINSON was born in 1822/23 in Culpeper Co., Virginia. He was living in 1850 in Rappahannock County, Virginia.(71) (72) Occupation listed as "Miller". He was living in 1860 in Rappahannock County, Virginia. Census shows him, his wife and children living in the household of James Hinson. He was living in 1876 in Rappahannock County, Virginia. He died after 1880. John G. Hinson married Lucy A. (Sallie) Grigsby 10 Dec, 1848, in Rappahannock Co., Virginia, per marriage records, and family tradition. After Bushrod Hinson, his brother, and Sarah Ellen Miller Hinson left Virginia and came to Missouri in about 1852, John G. took over as the "miller" at the Hinson family grist mill near Amissville, Va. on the Rappahannock River. The 1860 census shows him still there with children: James H., age 12, John M., age 10, Eliza, age 8, Florence, age 6, Sarah. age 4. amd Anna, age 1. It appears that John M. (Marion) ("Matt") came to Missouri in 1872, locating in Lafayette County, where he was a farmer. (Family tradition as related by his grand-daughter, Jeanne Hinson Irish).

On 16 February 1847 James M and Vienna (Parker) Grigsby and also Narcissa B Grigsby sold to John G. Hinson, 64 acres out of the Henry Grigsby survery. this tract of land was that of the dower interest of Frances, the widow of Henry Grigsby. She by this time was herself, deceased. It will be noted that John G. Hinson married Lucy A Grigsby, owner of Tract No. 3 of the Grigsby survey, consisting of 64 acres on 10 December 1846.

Henry N & Frances Grigsby sold to John G. Hinson, 64 acres of land from the dower interest of Frances Grigsby, widow, on 25 Novemeber 1847, out of the Grigsby survey. This was the same land as related as having also been sold by James M and Narcissa.

On 8 May 1856, John G. Hinson gave a deed of trust as security for his debts, considerable personal propety, household goods and 64 acres of land to Joseph A. Grimsely for the benefit of James Hinson and others. This property was sold by the trustee 4 November 1856, the purchasers being James Hinson for 64 acres of land, the other purchasers of personal property being Turner A. Jones, James Hinson, Franklin Pierce , Henry G. Jones, etc. This land was that which was formerly the dower interest of Frances Grigsby.

The will of James Hinson bequeathed back to John G. Hinson, 54 acres out of the 64 acres he had previously acquired at the trustees sale, due to the fact that Lucy A. Hinson had repaid him.

As late as July, 1875 John G. Hinson is still involved in litigation in the Chancery Court of Fauquier Co., VA. with the heirs of his father, James Hinson. This litigation involved the distribution of the assets of the estate of James Hinson, deceased, of which John G. Hinson was one of the executors.
