  Winchester
  Journeyman printer working in Winchester in 1810s, brother of William Hines (221b).
  Hines is mentioned in a nineteenth-century history of Winchester as being one of the two sons of weaver William Hines who were trained as printers in Winchester and who worked there, at least briefly. Online genealogical sources suggest that the father was an Irish émigré who arrived in Virginia in the early 1790s and who married a local woman, Mary Haymaker, in 1795. This Hines then was about twenty when he was drowned while trying to board a steamship in Washington in August 1815. No other information on him has been found, so no identification of his trade situation can be discerned.

  Winchester
  Journeyman printer working in Winchester in 1810s, brother of John Hines (221a).
  Hines is mentioned in a nineteenth-century history of Winchester as being one of the two sons of weaver William Hines who were trained as printers in Winchester and who worked there, at least briefly. Online genealogical sources suggest that the father was an Irish émigré who arrived in Virginia in the early 1790s and who married a local woman, Mary Haymaker, in 1795. William Hines was thus about twenty when his printer-brother John was drowned while trying to board a steamship in Washington in 1815. No other information on him has been found, so no identification of his trade situation can be discerned.
