They came to town in a horse drawn wagon and opened the Hinke Meat Market on Main St. in early 1900's. I know of three female cousins of Chester Nimitz; Laura, Edna, and Elsa Bea and a male cousin, Chester Hinke. They lived in the 900 block of Main Street until early 1960's. Edna was wheelchair bound; but was a very active volunteer at the Veterans Hospital; helping the patients there. She was recognized by President Eisenhower for her accomplishments in humanities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185899036941198756.post-90703614031826631432015-04-17T11:43:15.290-05:002015-04-17T11:43:15.290-05:00There's another "youthful photo" of ...There's another "youthful photo" of Chester Nimitz on Wikipedia.
