Here's what I posted. I hope this is what you were looking for.??
The story of my line follows. I believe that my father's grandmother, a slave, had children with her slavemaster. Therefore, I believe this is his line. This is based on family stories as well as a slave narrative that is posted on ancestry.com. I will add it here as well.
My paternal line runs as follows:
James Hinton, Sr. born c1670 Wiltshire, England
Aaron Hinton born 1745 Franklin, New Hanover, NC
Jesse Hinton born 1761 Newbern, Johnston Co, NC
Sidney Bud Hinton b. 1798 Johnston Co, NC supposedly had children with Rachel Hinton (african american)
George Hinton b. 1837 Richton, perry co, MS (mulatto)
This is part of the slave narrative that I was referring to.
I wuz bawn in Richton, Miss., in 1858. My father's name wuz George Hinton;
my mothers name wuz
Marthy Hinton. Both my parents wuz raised up in slavery. My
mother's old masta wuz Col. Holloman---but
my father's folks all b'longed to Mr. Bud Hinton. My father's
mother wuz Rachel Hinton. Dey bought her in
Virginia when she wuz seven year old and brought her to
Richton, Miss. She wuz raised up for a cook.
