    W. C. HINEBROOK, farmer and stock-raiser, is a native of Germany, his birth
occurring in the year 1837. His father, William Hinebrook, was also a native of
Germany, born in 1801, and was married in his native country to Louisa Neal, by
whom he became the father of the following named: T. W., Mary, Charles, W. C,
Louisa, Lewis. John M., and Sarah J. When a small boy, W. C, together with his
parents, emigrated to America, and coming to Indiana, found a home near
Bloomfield, in Greene County, where they engaged in agricultural pursuits. Miss
Sarah Beach, daughter of John Beach, became the wife of W. C. Hinebrook in 1867,
and together they have lived happily where they now reside for a number of
years, and are the parents of four children—John Newton, Louisa Ann, William
Henry and David (deceased). In 1861, when rebellion was threatening to overthrow
our Government, Mr. Hinebrook joined Company E, Fifty-ninth Indiana Volunteer
Infantry, and was with his regiment through the battles of New Madrid, Spanish
Fort, and numerous other engagements, and in 1864 was sent with a detachment to
guard prisoners at Rock Island. He was honorably discharged in February, 1865,
after which he returned home to Greene County, where he has since resided.
