Bowen Independent 23 Feb 1926
DEATH OF MR. J.H HINSCHEN.
We take the following from “ The Proserpine Guardian of Saturday last: -
At about 8.30 on Thursday night, John Henry Hinschen, one of our well respected citizens, after a long suffering illness, passed away at the age of 54 years. The late Mr Hinschen was a man who took a keen interest in the welfare of this district and he has been closely connected with most of the local bodies. His life’s work has been of great assistance to this town and his energies were always directed to the advancement of Proserpine. His funeral, which moved from his residence at 4 o’clock yesterday, after noon, was a very large one, and the number of wreaths that were placed at the graveside only went to show their esteem in which he was held. The Citizen’s Band, of which body the late Mr Hinschen was President, was in attendance and the Band marching ahead of the hearse, played the "Dead March." A large number of members of the Oddfel ows’ Lodge were also in attendance. Rev. S. Mackay (Presbyterian, Church) read the burial service at the graveside.
The late J. H. Hinschen was well-known in this district, especially by the old hands. He was one of the little band of settlers that went from the Upper Don to grow cane at Proserpine when the mill was first initiated. His parents and other settlers of the Upper Don were engaged in maize growing, the maize being kept in tanks until the price was good. He was one of the sports of the Upper Don, who banded together under the name of the Don Whalers and made themselves felt at our sports meetings in the old days. He married Miss Emily Meizner, of this District, who survives him, leaves a grown up family. The late Johnny Hinschen was a sterling chap in every way and his comparatively early death will be greatly regretted by many friends in this district

Daily Mercury (Mackay) 3 March 1926
Proserpine is very much the poorer
by the loss of one of its most noted
citizens in the person of the late John
Henry Hinschen. Mr. Hinschen, with
three brothers, settled in Proserpine in
1894. Previous to their arrival they
were engaged in procuring sleepers and
bridge timber for the Bowen and Towns-
ville railway then being laid. Proser-
pine, had very few settlers then, so that
Mr. Hinschen can truly be called one
of its pioneers. ……………..
Note 4: Burial

Bowen Independent 21 June 1946
MRS. EMILY HINSCHEN.
One of the oldest and most respected residents of Proserpine, Mrs. Emily Hinschen, widow of the late John Henry Hinschen, who predeceased her 20 years ago, passed away on Wednesday, 29th May, 1946, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. E. Exall, at the, age of 70 years (says Proserpine “Guardian"). Had she lived till Vic tory Day she would have celebrated her 71st birthday. Although not en joying the best of health for the last couple of years, her end came suddenly with a heart attack.
The late Mrs. Hinschen was born in Bowen and after marrying the late Mr. Hinschen came to Proserpine. She and her husband rode on horseback from Bowen to Proserpine in 1895. They joined her late husband’s three brothers Peter, August and Fred, who were farming in partnership. Her son Mr. Norm Hinschen now resides on the property. After living there for some years the late Mrs. Hinschen and her husband went to reside at Strathdickie, where they had purchased a farm. They resided there till 1918 and as their family was getting older, a larger farm was necessary to keep them together. A farm was purchased at Pluto Vale from the late Mr. John Gordon, where until a few mouths ago the late Mrs. Hinschen resided, rearing a family of eleven children.
She was of a very quiet nature, her chief interest and happiness lay in her family and home. She is survived by seven sons, Eddie, Witty, Ernie, Walter, Norm, Vince, Stan and three daughters Mrs. R. L. Grosskreutz, Mrs. J. Farrell and Mrs. Exall, also nineteen grandchildren. One son Quinn was accidentally killed at Proserpine two years ago. All other members of the family reside at Proserpine. Mr. Fred Meizner of Bowen is a brother, and Mrs. Cameron a sister.
