Hilda Katherine née BINNINGER (HINES) HENRY was the daughter of Henry J BINNINGER (Apr 1857 - Sept 1900) and Christina (also Christine) Catherine "Lizzie" HERDER (Feb 1962 - Jan 1902) both of whom were born, married and died in St Louis, MO. Hilda's father, age 43, died of a workplace electrocution accident at the Buff and Rau Mineral Waters factory where he was a foreman. Distraught on the loss of Henry, Christina made three attempts a suicide in the months that followed. Sadly, her 3rd try succeeded. It was front page news in The St. Louis Republic newspaper of 8 Jan 1902. Hilda and her brother Harry were 16 and 19 respectively.
Later the same year (1902), Hilda married Charles Franklin HINES. Their first child, Russell S HINES, was born 19 July 1903 in Michigan, where Charles was also born.
Sometime between the 1 Apr 1930 census date and 1934, Hilda married Mervyn C HENRY, a fireman employed on a steam railroad. In the 1940 census, Mervyn and Hilda are living at 1949 Page St., a few blocks from Cole St where he has lived much of his life. He is employed as a fireman for a steam railroad company.
