“Hudson J. Kinne, M. D., is a leading physician and surgeon of Benzie County, and is considered an able young man by the brethren of his profession. He is at present Health Officer of Frankfort and is President of the United States Pension Examining Board at Benzonia. In order to keep thoroughly posted on recent discoveries and matters pertaining to his life work, he takes the best medical journals and is identified with the State Medical Society. Though his practice in this place only extends over perhaps a year and a-half, he already numbers a large share of the leading citizens of this community among his clients, and his future bids fair to be unusually successful.
William Kinne, the paternal grandfather of the Doctor, was a native of New York State, and was a tiller of the soil. He lived to a good old age, being in his eighty-fifth year when he was summoned by the death angel. His grandfather was a soldier in the War of the Revolution. Jerome Kinne, father of Dr. H. J., was also born in the Empire State, and likewise his wife, Mary E., nee Lockwood. They had three children: Effie, who married Frederick Heughes, of Rochester, N. Y.; William I. and our subject. For many years the father resided at Hoyt’s Corners, N. Y., where his death occurred in 1889, at the age of fifty-six years. He was prominent in his community, was a man of wide information and experience, and held various township offices. His wife’s death occurred some years before he was called to the better land. She was a member of the Methodist Church and a noble Christian woman. Her father, Isaac Lockwood, was born in New York State, and died when about seventy-eight years of age. A man of utmost integrity of principle and action, he possessed the love and respect of all who knew him.
Dr. H. J. Kinne was born at Hoyt’s Corners, N. Y., March 19, 1861, and received his early education chiefly at Ovid, N. Y. On beginning his medical studies he entered the college at Baltimore, form which he was graduated in 1892. The following year he came to Frankfort with the intention of making this locality the scene of his future labors, and has not seen fit to make other plans, as he has succeeded beyond his expectations.
In March, 1884, the Doctor was united in marriage with Miss Locelia, daughter of Walter B. and Phoebe (Everett) Townsend. Mrs. Kinne was called to the home beyond in June, 1890, leaving two little sons, Hubert and William. The mother was a faithful member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and a lady who had hosts of friends. On the 11th of April, 1893, the Doctor married the lady who now bears his name, and who was previously Miss Emma Heath. Her parents are the Rev. Willard and Eleanor (Spear) Heath, now residents of Northport. The Doctor and his estimable wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church of this city and take an active part in all good works.
In his political connections Dr. Kinne is affiliated with the Democratic party. In his social relations he is a Knight of Pythias and has the honor of being Chancellor Commander of his lodge. He is also a Knight of the Maccabees and belongs to the Independent Order of Foresters.” – Excerpt from “Portrait and Biographical Record of Northern Michigan,” published by Record Publishing Company of Chicago, 1895.
