Walker, Wilhelmina [Hinton,]

Class of 1897? Wilhelmina Barbara Walker Hinton. Born the third child to a mother who bore eleven children (seven living to maturity) between the 1870’s and 1890’s, Wilhelmina Barbara Walker Hinton — remembered affectionately throughout the Hurricane Valley as “Aunt Mina” — found one of her life’s role models in her aunt, Louisa Rice, who was the midwife for her mother’s deliveries. Originally from Little Spring Valley, Nevada, Mina Hinton was born on October 18, 1873, on a two-hundred acre ranch which her parents, immigrants from Germany and Switzerland, turned into a dairy farm. Once they were able to make headway against the area’s thieves, rustlers, and robbers (as Mina described those who plagued her father’s farm), they were able to sell cheese at eighty cents per pound and butter at seventy-five cents per pound in mining communities such as Pioche, Nevada. Her parents had both converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints upon arrival in America, and in November of 1892, the family moved their family to Hinckley, Utah, in Millard County. Mina attended Brigham Young Academy in Provo until 1897, then returned to teach the first four grades at the district school at Hinckley — that was until Thomas Maurice Hinton of Virgin, Utah, arrived in Hinckley to look for work. They married on October 5, 1898, at which point they moved around Utah and Nevada following the work he had, much of it as a section hand for the Union Pacific Railroad. In 1905, the young Hintons and their three children moved back to Maurice’s native southern Utah home at word of the success of the canals. They spent a year in Virgin, but with water flowing for the first time on the Hurricane Bench, a new town emerged and began to grow — Hurricane. The Hintons made their way to Hurricane where Maurice first built a granary and home for Thomas Isom, and then built a home for his own family at 200 North and 200 West. Mina earned the distinction of being the first woman to live in Hurricane, but that status only lasted a few months, for families arrived in the Hurricane Valley in a flow comparable to the water coming down the canal. In 1920, Hurricane’s Dr. Wilkinson asked Mina to assist him, and her work over the next twenty-four years made her one of the Hurricane Valley’s most celebrated pioneers. A midwife for a recorded 442 deliveries, many of today’s Hurricane Valley residents have Mina Hinton to thank for her assistance at the birth of their parents or grandparents. However, delivering babies was not her only duty. Mina often stayed to help at the home of a new delivery for as long as two weeks until the new mother could reassume the tasks of her household. Mina also cared for the sick throughout those years and was said to have a healing touch. While her work as a midwife and caregiver remains her primary legacy, Mina and Maurice also raised seven children together and Mina was very involved in church callings throughout the decades. Mina loved music, literature, and poetry. She led various choirs in the area, read frequently, and contributed her original poetry for special occasions such as weddings and funerals. Another first attributed to Mina was that she was Hurricane’s first reporter — Mina was the Hurricane correspondent to the Washington County News for many years. Maurice passed away in 1948, but Mina carried on in the Hurricane Valley for more than twenty additional years. She passed away just one week shy of her ninety-fifth birthday, October 10, 1968. The Hinton home Maurice built in 1906 was moved from 200 North and 200 West to its current location at approximately 68 West State Street — the location of the original Isom granary — where it was restored by the Washington County Historical Society.

Joseph is included on a list of 59 names of the earliest students of Brigham Young Academy, taken from a file in the BYU Archives, made by an unknown contemporary student. ~ ~ ~ ~ Joseph B. Walton, who was born in Alpine, Utah, in 1856, moved to Provo in 1870 to further his education. He stayed in his adopted city most of the rest of his life. Walton's education at the Dusenberry brothers' Timpanogos Branch and at the Brigham Young Academy prepared him for a successful career in education. He supervised Springville's semipublic schools for years and fulfilled the role of a teaching principal at Provo's Parker and Franklin schools. Later, he taught in Pleasant View. The young educator also played an active part in the social life of the community. Walton married Emma Jacques in 1878, and the couple performed with the Provo Dramatic Association. Walton also played a flute in Provo's Martial Band. In 1904, the Walton family moved to a farm in Pleasant View where Joseph became a horticulturist and continued his profession as an educator. During his later years, he developed a fascination for history. Walton took many photographs and wrote of the history of his two favorite towns -- Alpine and Provo. [Source: D.

Reuel Walton was born November 7, 1880, in Woodruff, the third child in a family of 13 children. Their descendants said that the Walton children could each play three different musical instruments and the family had its own orchestra at one time. Reuel continued to play the trombone and was part of a local band as an adult. After finishing public schools in Woodruff and Salt Lake, Reuel attended the Brigham Young Academy in Provo, Utah [circa 1898]. He then studied law at the University of Utah and was admitted to the bar in both Utah and Wyoming. Reuel married Florence M. Lewis of Evanston on November 28, 1912, and began his law practice. Walton was elected as Uinta County Attorney in 1918 and held that position until 1932. He was then appointed district judge of the Third Judicial District of Wyoming, serving until 1934. He was elected justice of the peace in 1940, and served as court commissioner from 1943 until his death. Walton was a state senator for several terms, and upon his death the family received a copy of the resolution of deep sympathy from the Wyoming Senate that was read at the 34th session of the Wyoming State Legislature in Reuel’s honor. Walton was highly regarded in the Evanston, Wyoming community during his lifetime. He spent many years in public service both in Evanston and in the state of Wyoming. He and his wife Florence participated in the Evanston Social Club and were active members of the Evanston community. Source: Uinta County Herald, Tuesday, July 17, 2018 |
