Andrew Hinchman, son of Joseph and Rebecca Hinchman, was born near Rushville, Indiana., April 17, 1840. He was the youngest of 10 children, none of whom survive. After he had completed the common school, he attended a high school at Dunlapsville, and later attended a college in Indianapolis.
He began business as a druggist. Later he moved to Marysville, MO, where he took up the stock business. He moved in 1872 to Americaus, and lived with Joseph Kimpton family. A year later Mr. Kimpton and Mr. Hinchman took claims on the Kaw reservation. Up to the time of death, Mr. Hinchman held his original government patent for the claim.
He was marred in May, 1886, to Cora E. Kimpton, moving a short time later to Dunlap. One son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Hinchman, who with Mrs. Hinchman, survives.
In 1896, because of failing health, Mr. Hinchman and his family moved to East Las Vegas, New Mexico., and live there for four years. Later they moved to Denver, Colorado, where they lived until 1913. In 1913 they moved to San Diego, California, living there until 1917, when they returned to Dunlap. For several years they have spent the winters in California, until Mr. Hinchman's health prevented his going.
