"I remember reading that when Rev. Hinman was removed from Santee and sent back to Minnesota he married a woman named Mary and had a daughter named Mary. so this might be why the dates on Mary Hinman differ."

“In 1884, (Samuel Dutton Hinman) was married at Springfield, Dakota Territory, by the Rev. Chas. Secombe, to Mary Myrick, daughter of Andrew Myrick, a friend who was killed by the Indians in the massacre of 1862 at the lower Sioux Agency.”

Hi Mike, I've been working on this part of my family recently & there's much confusion between the two Mary's. I don't know why the daughter is often called Mary Myrick Hinman LaCroix. This is where it can get confusing. If she were just Mary Hinman LaCroix & her mother was Mary Myrick Hinman, it would be easier to keep them separated, not just by dates. IMO. js
