Adolph Henry Hinz, son of John and Sophia Ahrens Hinz, was born Oct. 4, 1886, in Manning, Iowa. He attended Manning schools. He was united in marriage with Antonia Feldmann on Feb. 19, 1933.

Mr. Hinz died Oct. 20, 1976 at Manning General Hospital. He was preceded in death by his parents, his stepfather, one sister, one stepsister and two stepbrothers.

He is survived by his wife, a son, Harlyn and his wife, Ernestine, of Seattle, Washington, four grandchildren, one great grandson and two sisters, Lillian Mohr of Manning and Verna Hoffmann, of California.


Adolph Hinz is buried in the Manning City Cemetery.
Section D Row #40 south - north.

I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner, and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites, and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!

Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
