Harvey K. Hines Explained
Harvey Kimball Hines (1828–1902) was a Methodist minister and an early historian of the U.S. state of Oregon. In 1878 he ran for Congress, and drew criticism for neglecting his religious vows in so doing.[1] He was known, along with Frances Fuller Victor, as a historian who delved through early original documents.[2] Gustavus Hines was his older brother.
In 1901 he joined Harvey Whitefield Scott and governor Geer in dedicating a monument to the framers of the Provisional Government of Oregon.[3] He died at his home in Portland on January 18, 1902.[4] [5] He was initially buried at Lone Fir Cemetery.[6] In autumn that year his remains and those of his wife were removed to the Methodist Lee Mission Cemetery in Salem.[7]
