Rev. P.E. Hinshaw was born in Randolph County, Ind., Aug. 6, 1848, a son of 
Solomon and Rachel (Hodgin) Hinshaw, natives of North Carolina, who, with 
their parents, settled in the above county in an early day. He was reared on a 
farm and after attaining his majority worked at the carpenter's trade in 
connection with farming. He was married Sept. 9, 1869, to Emma Haisley, and 
subsequently removed to Rice County, Kan. While living in Kansas his crops 
were twice destroyed by grasshoppers. He visited his old home in the interest 
of the Friends, and was successful in securing considerable aid with which to 
build them a meetinghouse. He entered the ministry of that society in Kansas, 
and has labored energetically for its benefit. In November, 1882, he was 
called to the society in Milton. Mr. and Mrs. Hinshaw have seven children---
Edwin M., Elbert R.; Carrie J., Ella I., Laura M., Franklin S. and Mary J.
