Haines,
Bernice:
(1917-1991); “Bernice
Frances (Reinbold) Haines, who had been living at the Lincoln Nursing Home,
passed away Dec 12, 1991. Her
health had not been good for several years and she had been living in the
nursing home for four and a half years following hip replacement surgery. She
was the daughter of Adelina and Dan F Reinbold.
She was born June 17, 1917, at Egypt, arriving several weeks early and
weighing only 4 pounds. Her first bed was a shoe box and she was put on the
warming shelf on the old wood stove to keep warm. She attended and graduated
from Davenport schools and recently celebrated her 50-year class reunion.
On Oct 9, 1938, she married R Kenneth Haines at Egypt’s Christ Lutheran
Church. The next year, the couple moved down to the old Earl place, where they
lived until retirement. The Haines
then moved to Harrington. Mrs Haines loved her yard. She had a big garden and
canned all summer, but her flowers were her main love. Her yard looked like a
park. She also enjoyed cooking and guests never left her table hungry. She was
very active in the Harrington United Methodist Church, where she was a member,
teaching Sunday school for many years and serving as president of the Ladies
Aid. She was a member of Magnolia Rebekah Lodge and a 53-year member of
Community Grange. She is survived by her two daughters and sons-in-law, Janice
and Wayne Hutchinson of Deer Park and Virginia and Jerry Stinnett at the old
Earl place; 8 grandchildren, Kathy and Keith Walker of Airway Heights, Chris and
Jim Blair, Carold and Donna Hutchinson of Deer Park, and Kenny and Zane Stinnett
of Harrington; three great granddaughters…; brothers and their families, Don
and Nona Reinbold of Davenport, Pat and Peggy Reinbold of Zillah, WA, and Gene
and Bev Reinbold, of Moses Lake; and numerous nephews, nieces, cousins and
friends. Her husband of 52 years, Kenny, preceded her in death on July 20,
1991.” (Davenport Times: 1-16-1992);

Haynes. Died: Jan 19, 1897.” (Lincoln Co Auditor Death Ledger); “J D Haines,
a well known farmer who lived in the Leipham district about nine miles southeast
of Davenport, died last Monday evening after a couple of weeks’ illness with
pneumonia, which resulted from a cold contracted a few weeks ago while camping
out in the timber where he was engaged cutting wood. The funeral occurred Wednesday, under the auspices of Woodmen
of the World, of which order he was a member. Brief services were held at the
home of the deceased by Rev Walker before noon, and from there the procession
came to town where members of the order in a body followed the remains to the
grave, and where the last rites were performed according to the ritual of this
order. Mr Haines leaves a wife and
six children, the oldest of whom is a boy of about fourteen years.
He was in his forty-fourth year, and came to Lincoln County from Illinois
some eight years ago. Mr Haines was generally esteemed by his neighbors, and was
an excellent citizen. He carried two thousand dollars insurance in the Woodmen
of the World, which goes to his family.” (LCT: 1-22-1897)

(1913-1991) “Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at the chapel
of Strate Funeral Home for Kenneth ‘Kenny’ Haines. Interment followed at Mt

Haines, 78, passed away July 20, at his home in Harrington. Mr Haines was a 50+ year member of the Community Grange in

daughters, Virginia and Jerry Stinnett of Harrington; and Janice and Wayne
Hutchinson of Deer Park; one brother, Raymond Haines of Salem, Oregon; four
granddaughters, two grandsons; and numerous nieces, nephews and friends.” (Dav.

Hair,
Ole S:
(1858-1906); “Ole
Hair, one of the best known saloon men in the Big Bend, was accidentally killed
Sunday night last while on his way home from Reardan, where he had been to
attend a ball game. His death was the result of a runaway, and took place some
ten miles east of town. He was accompanied by W R Crookham, who witnessed the
accident which he was powerless to avert. Mr Crookham had dismounted from the
buggy, and Mr Hair attempted to get out also, but seemed to miss the step in
alighting and fell, scaring the horses. They started to run, and in some way the
long linen duster which the driver wore got caught either on the step or wound
up on the hub of the wheel. The horses ran dragging him along at their heels,
and not until they had gone fully a half a mile did the clothes of the
unfortunate man become unfastened from the rig. He was unconscious when picked
up, and never after regained consciousness. It was ten o’clock in the evening
before he was brought in and a physician summoned, but it was soon apparent that
Ole Hair had taken his last ride. He lingered along until about six o’clock
Monday morning when he passed away. His face and head were terribly bruised, and
the skull was broken in, evidently by the kick of a horse on the left side of
the forehead, the break being about the size of a cork on a horseshoe….
Deceased was born in Norway and was 48 years of age. He had lived in Davenport
for the last ten or twelve years, and was generally considered to be well fixed
financially. A few years since he built a two story brick building on Sixth
street, which he occupied with his saloon business. Among his associates he was
popular and enjoyed the confidence and personal respect of many, a fact that was
attested by the immense throng that followed his remains to their final resting
place. The procession to the grave was headed by the band, Forresters and
Eagles, marching in double file, and in the rear came some 20 or 30 rigs. It was
perhaps the most imposing funeral procession ever witnessed in Davenport. The
deceased had family relatives in New York, but so far as known, none in the
west. Mr Martin McLean of the Davenport National Bank has been appointed
temporary administrator of the estate of the deceased.” (LCT: 5-04-1906) (see

in his native country, and, in the spring of 1873, came to the United States
with his twin brother, Marcus, who died here in August, 1921. The brothers
settled first in Wisconsin, but in 1875, they moved to California and engaged in
farm work until the fall of 1877, when they started for Washington. They came to
this state overland by means of a wagon, stopping first at Walla Walla, and then
proceeding to the Palouse country to the place where the town of Pullman now
stands. In the spring of 1880 they came to Cottonwood Springs, where Davenport
now stands. At that time there was only one small house here and the surrounding
country was sparsely settled. Mr Hansen took up a homestead two and a half miles
southeast of town, and there he endured all the hardships incident to pioneer
life. Supplies had to be hauled from Colfax and Spokane, and Mr Hansen had to go
to other parts of the state to harvest to earn money for the necessities and
improvements on his farm. Although
Mr Hansen had but a half interest in a wagon when he arrived here before he
retired from farming and moved to town in 1916 he owned 320 acres of fine grain
land, and the improvements on his farm, now the Frank Johnson place, were
regarded as among the best in this county.
Mr Hansen resided in Davenport from 1916 until his death. He was married
August 7, 1898, to Hanna L Hansen, who survives him. He is also survived by
three daughters, Mrs John C Raymer, Miss Agnes Hansen and Miss Gladys Hansen, of
Davenport, and three sisters, Mrs Charles Morgan, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, Mrs
Chris Coos, Gig Harbor, WA, and Mrs Ole Olsen, Austin, Texas.” (DT&T:
