      Terry Maygar (at Ancestry.com): ''This was submitted by the noted Hinkle genealogist and historian, Janet Hinkle Alban on May 9, 1990. She was the primary researcher and author of several Hinkle genealogies tracing most, if not all of these lines to the 1990’s. Mrs. Alban’s work is a true contribution to us all. I am proud to say that Christopher and Sarah were my Great Great Great Grandparents.''
