Cousin Elizabeth Flowers Jones told him about Hindman portrait

Loss of portrait sad; so is the fact that Hindman's stone in Columbia City Cemetery was either destroyed or stolen.
About: Adair Co KY History Mystery: Where is likeness of Gov. Hindman?

"Jim":

Many years ago I was told of the portrait of Lt. Gov. Hindman by my cousin Elizabeth Flowers Jones.

Her grandfather and my great grandfather, George Whitfield Flowers. and Hindman were best of friends and served in the Thirteenth Union from Lexington, KY.

Not only is it sad that the portrait is lost, but Hindman was buried in the Columbia city cemetery and the stone was either destroyed or stolen.

Perhaps the marker and the portrait are resting together at some location where future ages shall find. Lets hope!
