"Philip Hinkle with his family, settled in the southeast corner of Sullivan County, at the early date named, and shared in the toils, and hardships and privations of a pioneer life. His only resource for bread, outside of his grater or pestle and mortar being to take his sack of corn upon his horse, and follow the trace-way to Shaker Town, about fifteen miles distant, to have it ground." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The following article was found in, A History of Sullivan County Indiana, Volume I, by Thomas J. Wolfe, 1909. pg. 57. Philip Hinkle settled in the southeast corner of Sullivan county in 1819, coming from Kentucky. He lived there at a time when it was necessary to take corn to Shakertown to have it ground. The Hinkle family, of which Philip was the first immigrant to this county, have been well known and numerously represented since that time. (Reminder in 1815- Philip's sister, Polly Hinkle Beck came to this section and settled Pleasantville with her husband Jesse Beck and had the first white child, their son in 1816.)
