JOHN WILLIAM HINKLE, county commissioner of Hamilton county, is a representative citizen, the owner of a valuable farm, and stands well in the community. His birth occured on the 20th of August, 1849, in Clark county, Arkansas, on the homstead farm of his father, William Hinkle, a sketch of whom appears elsewhere in this volume. At the age of twenty-eight he began agricultural pursuits on his own account, upon a farm of fifty acres, which he owned in Dallas county. In 1880 he removed to Milam county, but in the summer of that year puchased one hundred and sixty acres in Hamilton county, on which he located the following autumn. He later bought four hundred and eighty acres, but has since sold one hundred acres of that amount, so that he now has three hundred and eighty acres, of which one hundred acres are under a high state of cultivation. It is supplied with good and substantial buildings, and all the farm machinery is modern. He spent his boyhood and youth after the manner of most farmers' sons, becoming familiar with plowing, sowing, and reaping, and amid the quiet scenes of country life grew up with a healthy constitution, a clear brain, and was well equipped for his chosen calling.
On the 2d of May, 1878, Mr. Hinkle was united in marriage with Miss Sarah Elizabeth Gilliland, who was born in Parker county, Texas, February 2, 1858, and is the daughter of James Berry and Angeline (Baker) Gilliland. They have become the parents of five children: Charles William, born July 12, 1879; James Baltus, born February 2, 1881; Avy Emzella, born August 2, 1883; Chloe Alice, born July 25, 1885; and John Calvin, who was born September 4, 1888, and died on the 13th of the same month.
Mr. Hinkle was a supporter of the Democratic party until 1880, when he joined the Greenback party, later belonged to the Union Labor party, and since 1892 has been a Populist. He was elected county commissioner in the fall of 1894, and so ably has he filled that position, giving the best of satisfaction, that his name is prominently mentioned for re-nomination. For twelve years he has been a consistent member of the Missionary Baptist church, to which his estimable wife also belongs. They enjoy the society and friendship of the best people of their community, and possess the entire confidence and regard of their neighbors.
