DocumentsIn a document dated 1285 we have one of the earliest records of the family, an account of an action entered at the assizes in Newcastles by Agnes Benerigg, widow of Walter Hindmers, against a group of men who had fled to her house during a dispute; the house had been destroyed during a besiegement. The whole proceedings in the trial are circumstantially detailed in the Rolls of Parliament for 1293. (Rot. Par. 1.120.124). according to Mr Hodgson in his "History of Northumberland" Part 11 Vol.11. Newcastle 1832.Another record of the family name appears in an old manuscript dated 1385. "An appointment by Richard 11 to certain persons to enquire into a grave complaint of Thomas Menneville that Rob Hynmerssh, and others, "malefactors and breakers of our peace", had broken the house and fences of the said Thomas Menneville at Whittenstall and Fairhill and had carried off 30 horses, 20 heifers, 100 oxen, 100 cows, of the value of £200, and had assaulted, beaten, and wounded his men and servants, and had done other damage etc. to the amount of £1000.

1574 - Probate 21st July 1575.
Reginald Hindmers was a younger son of a Durham family whicjh is at the present represented by Robert Allan esq of Blackwell Hall, one of the first and most zealous members of the Surtees Society. He began life as vicar of Billingham, in the bishoprick of Durham, which he resigned in 1544 for the lucrative rectory of Wensley, in the North Riding, which was given to him by Lord Scrope. He died at Wensley in 1575, having been rector there for 32 years. He probably held other preferment, for on the 20th December 1548, there is a general acquittance from John Lord Scrope of Bolton to "Sir Raynold Hyndmer, preyst, parson of Hameldon". On the death of his brother Robert Hindmers, rector of Sedgefield, in 1558, he became possessor of the manor of Aislaby, which had been purchased by his brother in the preceding year, and which at his death descended to his nephew and heir John Hindmers. The will and inventory of the rector of Sedgefield have been already printed by the Surtees Society. William Spenceley was the husband of Florence Hindmers, one of the four nieces of the testor. Henry the son of Lionel Fetherstonhalgh, the third son of Alexander Fetherstonhalgh of Stanhope Hall esq married Helen or Alice daughter of.....Hindmers, a niece of the testor. Lionel Fetherstonhalgh, his eldest son settled at Brancepath, and was buried there on 16th March 1625. He died unmarried, and his will is dated on the 11th March in the same year. Lancelot, his second son, was buried at Brancepath on the 19th March, 1634-5; he lived there and died unmarried. William his third son, also lived at Brancepath, and was buried there on 4th June, 1660. He married and left numerous descendants. Michael Pemberton was the son of Richard Pemberton by Ann - daughter and coheir(?) of John Hindmers - and was probably a cousin or perhaps a brother-in-law of the testator. In 1595 he purchased the manor of Aislaby from the co-heirs of John Hindmers, and lived there until his death. His will is dated at Aislaby on 6th September 1624. In it, strange to say, he calls the three sons of Henry Fetherstonhalgh his brothers. The other members of the family of Pemberton, whom the testator mentions in his will, are all to be found in the family pedigree. Surtees iii p208. Agnes Hindmers, a niece of the testator, married Christopher Maire, and her descendants rose to considerable importance. Ellen Hindmers, her sister, married Richard Todd. John Hindmers, the nephew of the testator, was educated at Cambridge where his expenses were paid by his uncle. On the death of his uncle Reginald in 1575, Robert Hindmers, rector of Sedgefield succeeded to the family estate of Aislaby. He held the estate until his death in 1589 when it passed into the possession of his four sisters. 1576 - 4th Dec: Will of Edmund Shadforth - All Saints, Newcastle - "To my nevye, Robert Hynmers, sonne to Matthewe Hynmers...To Mathewe Hynmers a whysle of sylver, and to his sonne one ould angell (a gold coin)."

Elected Fellow of the Royal Society 31 May 1838. By his will of 24 Aug 1885, Hymers bequeathed all his property to the mayor and corporation of Hull as a foundation for a grammar school. An obscurity in the wording of the will rendered the bequest invalid but the heir-at-law spontaneously offered the corporation a sum of £40,000 to fulfil Hymer's purpose. A branch of this family were Whalers and resided at Kingston-upon-Hull:

See Foster's Index Ecclesiastic. 1536 - John Hyndmers was vicar of Alston Cumberland until 23rd Sept 1558. 1536 - Concerning George Hyndmers - Sub-Prior of Hexham. "on the 28th of Sept 1536, Sir Cuthbert Radcliffe, Lionel Crag, William Grene, James Rokeby, and Robert Collingwood, the King's Commissioners, with a few attendants, rode up along the banks of the Tyne with the purpose of putting an end to the foundation of Hexham. When they reached Dilston the strange news arrived that the "Canons" were up in arms, and had fortified their house with guns and all manner of artillery intending to themselves to the last. A halt was ordered, and an anxious discussion ensued as to the best steps to take under the circumstances. Eventually, it was agreed that Gray and Collingwood should go forward with a small company. When they reached Hexham they found that the news they had received was perfectly true. The steep and narrow streets, as they passed through,were full of angry and excited men, who were hurrying to arms to the tolling of the town "alarum bell", as if they were preparing to resist an invasion of the Scots. The great fray bell of the priory rang out an answering peal that only added to the general babelof sound, and announced the approach of the expected foe. the people hurried out to defend their beloved church, and the Commissioners arrived only to find the doors all locked and barred and the walls lined with armed men. The Master of Ovingham, who was the ringleader of the resistance, stood upon the walls in complete harness with a strung box in his hands. So dangerous a situation must have seriosly disturbed the equanimity of the Commissioners, but the least they could was to demand instance admittance and the respect due from loyal subjects to the King's writ and seal. The Master of Ovingham boldly replied: "We be twenti brethren in this house and we shall dye all, yet shall ye have this house." The Commissioners then presented their credentials, and the Master of Ovingham retired to take counsel with his brethren. Before long however, he re-appeared accompanied by the Sub-Prior, George Hyndmers. His only answer was, "We doo nott doubte bott ye bring with yow the kings seall of auctiorite for this hous, albeitt ye shall se here tjhe kings confirmacion of our hous under the great seall of King Henry the VIII th God save his grace. we think it nott the kings honor to gyff furthe oon scall contrary to an other, and afore any other of our landes, goods, or hous be takin frome us we shall all dye and yt is our full answer."

The Hearth Tax was in force from 1662 until it was repealed in 1689. It involved a 2 shilling payment to the King (Charles II> on every hearth in a house. It was collected in two instalments due at Lady Day (25 March) and Michaelmas (29 September). Although the poor were exempt from this tax they were often included, particularly in later returns. An assessment was drawn up to show what people were expected to pay and then a return was compiled recording what they actually did pay. Sometimes an assessment was marked with the payments, thereby becoming a return. One copy was retained for the Quarter Sessions while the other was sent to the Exchequer. The following is a brief reference to Hindmer/Hindmoore in the Hearth Tax returns for Westmorland:
