BYA HS Class of 1892. Alonzo Hinckley appears in a photograph held by the BYU Archives of "the first class to graduate from the new Academy Building, 1892." (UAP 2 Folder 037) ~ ~ ~ ~ A. Alonzo Hinckley was ordained an apostle on October 11, 1934, by President Heber J. Grant, at age 64. ~ ~ ~ ~ A. Alonzo Hinckley was a merchant, educator, farmer, stock-raiser, LDS stake president for 27 years, legislator, civic official, missionary and mission president. Alonzo Hinckley, president of the California mission, was an able addition to the Council of the Twelve Apostles. His Church activities, his pioneering endeavors and livestock raising brought him recognition througout the west. He was a man of humble and kindly disposition, of sharp intellect, and rare sense of humor. As president of the Millard and Deseret stakes for a total of 27 years, and as president of the California mission, he won a host of followers and associates who wished him happiness and joy in the new position to which he was called. He was born on April 23, 1870, at Cove Fort, Utah. He was a son of Ira Nathaniel Hinckley and Angeline Noble Hinckley, New Englanders who helped pioneer Utah. His ancestry traced back to the early settlers of the American continent, who came to the Atlantic seaboard in 1635. His father was a prominent pioneer and patriot, and his mother was one of the first school teachers in Salt Lake City, having taught in the old First ward, and among her pupils was the mother of Maud Adams, world famed actress. In his boyhood he worked on his father's farm, together with his brothers, one of whom is President Bryant S. Hinckley of Liberty stake. As a boy, at one time, he was herding horses, to keep them off the haylands, and after working for some hours, stopped to rest. Having no place to which he could tie his horse, he looped a line from the horse to his own foot, and lay down to rest. The horse became frightened, and ran away, pulling the boy through brush and rocks, an experience which nearly cost him his life. Reared at Fillmore, his father and mother came to Salt Lake in 1850, but had not met each other at this time. Subsequently, however, Brigham Young called the father to Cove Creek to supervise the building of the fort there. This was in 1867. Three years later, this new apostle was born. His early life was spent in Cove Fort and Fillmore, Millard county, his father having moved to Fillmore when appointed president of Millard Stake in 1877. When but a lad of 14 years, he went to work for his brother-in-law, Lafayette Holbrook, in Frisco, a typical mining town of Beaver county. There he gained a basic training in merchandising which led to the establishment of the Hinckley Co-op, in Hinckley, Utah. As founder of this institution, the name of A. A. Hinckley first became prominent. A graduate of the Fillmore grammar school and an 1892 graduate of Brigham Young Academy high school in Provo, Elder Hinckley taught school for a number of years in Deseret, Millard County. It is interesting that the town of Hinckley, noted as a center of alfalfa seed raising, was named in honor of his father, Ira N. Hinckley. As a dairyman, Elder Hinckley aided his father and carried on his stock-raising interests after his death. At the time he was named an apostle, he owned a dairy farm in Salt Lake County. He also became known in Millard as a successful alfalfa seed grower. He operated and owned three large farms in that county, one in Hinckley, one in Delta, and one in Lyndyll. In 1892 he married Rose May Robison, BYA Class of 1892~Honorary, and lived in Deseret one year before moving to Hinckley, where he made his home. Five years after his marriage he was called to fill a mission to the Netherlands, returning in 1900. Prominent in Church and civic circles in Millard County, he was chosen in 1902 to succeed his father as president of Millard Stake, and he conducted the affairs of this office until the Stake grew to such an extent that it became advisable to divide it, and make two stakes. In 1912 this division was accomplished. The Millard and Deseret stakes were organized, and he became president of the latter one. He served in this position until 1929, at which time he was honorably released after more than 27 years continuous service as a stake president. He then removed to Salt Lake City, making his home on Wall Street, but shortly after coming here he was called to succeed President Joseph W. McMurrin as head of the California mission, with headquarters in Los Angeles. Elder Hinckley served two terms in the legislature representing Millard County, and when Governor Charles R. Mabey was elected he appointed him as State Commissioner of Agriculture. He was retained in this position for some months after the election of Governor George H. Dern. A father of 14 children, 12 of whom were living when he became an apostle, his family was an unusual one. His eldest son, Harold Hinckley, was a practicing physician in Corcoran, California, having graduated from the University of Utah and University of Chicago medical schools, and having fulfilled a mission to New Zealand. Rulon T. Hinckley, the second eldest son, was a graduate of Brigham Young University, and he fulfilled a mission to Germany and returned to teach seminary at Hinckley High School. Arza, the youngest son, served in the Northwestern States mission. Of the daughters, Afton Hinckley Badger of held a master's degree in domestic arts from Brigham Young University. The other daughters, Mabel, Suzanne, Angelina, Ethel, Mary, Nelly, Beulah and Zina all received high school diplomas by the time their father became a member of the Council of the Twelve. Alonzo Hinckley bore a striking resemblance in physical appearance to the late President Anthony W. Ivins, but his career also paralleled that of that distinguished leader in several ways. Both were more or less self-made; both were ardent spreaders of the gospel as missionaries and mission presidents; both were stake presidents, one as the first citizen of St. George Stake, the other as the first citizen of Millard Stake; both led well-balanced lives with a hand in an amazing number of business, economic and industrial ventures; both were outdoor men.

Sixth Principal of BY High School from 1904 to 1909. ~ ~ ~ ~ Edwin S. Hinckley was born July 21, 1868, in Cove Fort, Utah, the seventh child of pioneer parents, Ira N. and Adelaide Hinckley. They were known as people of refinement, integrity, religion, family, and education. Edwin S. Hinckley attended Brigham Young Academy in Provo, Utah, and his experiences heightened his interest in higher education. Bryant graduated from BYA high school in 1885 and Edwin in 1886? Edwin was a half brother to Bryant S. Hinckley, and they came to Provo to school together. Edwin married Addie Henry in 1890, and Bryant went on to school in the East and was not married until three years later. Each man remained a teacher and both taught at BYA, Bryant from 1893 to 1900, and Edwin for twenty years. Edwin and his wife Adeline (Addie) Henry Hinckley moved to Ann Arbor, Mich., to pursue additional studies in geology at the University of Michigan; he graduated as class salutatorian. Simultaneously he served a part-time mission. Returning to BYA to teach in 1895, Hinckley served another mission in Colorado. After Brigham Young Academy became BYU in 1903, Hinckley served as Principal of BY High School from 1904 to 1909. For 21 years he inspired students in the classroom, prompting at least one of them, J. Edward Johnson, to write that he "sat as one enchanted all the period he talked to our class, later adding, "One of [his] expressions was, 'Some of you here have it in you to do things which will set waves in motion that will not stop until they break upon the waves of eternity.' "What he taught me in geology has long since ceased to make the slightest difference to me, but the inspiration of his personality and philosophy of life . . . his keen wit and wholesome good humor, continue to fire me with new ambitions." Hinckley, known as the geologist of the university, also served as second counselor, as it was termed then, to BYU president George H. Brimhall. With E.D. Partridge, he laid out the block Y, and was dean of the Church Teachers College. Upon his BYU retirement he served the State Industrial School at Ogden for seven years as superintendent where his management philosophy was "Trust-not punish." He later served as executive director for the Provo City Chamber of Commerce and was a principal participant in major economic development in central Utah. He had served as BYU's Alumni president in 1897 and '98 and continued his affiliation in 1924 and '25 as president a second time. Hinckley died Nov. 15, 1929, leaving a family that included 13 children. In 1954, wanting to express appreciation to their parents, they extended the Hinckley influence by establishing the Edwin Smith Hinckley Scholarship Fund at BYU.

Board of Trustees, 1961 to present. On January 27, 2008, President Gordon B. Hinckley died at the age of ninety-seven while surrounded by family Salt Lake City. According to a Church spokesman, his death was due to "causes incident to age." President Gordon B. Hinckley, world leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, had been ordained and set apart as the 15th President of the Church on Sunday, March 12, 1995. He had earlier served 14 years as a counselor in the First Presidency, the top governing body of the Church, and as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles for 20 years prior to that. His Church service has been extensive. He was called as a member of the Sunday School General Board in 1937, two years after returning home from missionary service in Great Britain. For 20 years, he directed all Church public communications. In 1951 he was named executive secretary of the General Missionary Committee, managing the entire missionary program of the Church, and served in this capacity for seven years. He was president of the East Millcreek Stake in Salt Lake City when he was called as a General Authority in the capacity of an Assistant to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles on April 6, 1958. President Hinckley was named to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles on October 5, 1961. On July 23, 1981, he was called into the First Presidency to serve as Counselor and on December 2, 1982, was named Second Counselor to President Spencer W. Kimball. He served as First Counselor to President Ezra Taft Benson from November 1985 to May 30, 1994. On June 5, 1994, he was called as the First Counselor to President Howard W. Hunter. He was also ordained and set apart as the President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. As a member of the First Presidency, he has had a major role in administering both the ecclesiastical and temporal affairs of the Church, whose more than 10 million members are spread over some 160 nations and territories. His Church assignments have taken him around the world many times, and he has dedicated more temples than any other leader in the history of the Church. He is the first Church President ever to travel to Spain, where in 1996 he broke ground for a temple in Madrid, and to Africa, where he met with thousands of Latter-day Saints in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. President Hinckley was born June 23, 1910, in Salt Lake City, Utah, a son of Bryant Strigham and Ada Bitner Hinckley. His first job was as a newspaper carrier for the Deseret News, a Salt Lake City daily. After attending public schools in Salt Lake City, the future Church leader earned a bachelor of arts degree at the University of Utah and then accepted a call from the Church to spend two years as a full-time missionary in Great Britain. He served with distinction and ultimately was called to be an assistant to the Church Apostle who presided over all the European missions. Upon being released from missionary service in the mid-1930s, he was called by then Church President Heber J. Grant to organize what has become the Church's public affairs program. President Hinckley's major assignments during two decades of service as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles included the supervision of Church units in Asia, Europe, and South America. His Church committee assignments as a general officer have been in such areas as temples, missionary work, welfare services, priesthood, and members in the military service. He also served as chairman of the executive committee for the observance of the Church's 150th anniversary in 1980. In addition to his Church duties, President Hinckley has been active in community and business affairs, serving as chairman and board member of a number of business corporations. In 2004, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civil award, by President George W. Bush. He has been the recipient of a number of educational honors including: the Distinguished Citizen Award, from Southern Utah University; Distinguished Alumni Award, from the University of Utah; and honorary doctorates from Westminster College, Utah State University, University of Utah, Brigham Young University, and Southern Utah University. He has received the Silver Buffalo Award of the Boy Scouts of America and has been honored by the National Conference (formerly the National Conference of Christians and Jews) for his contributions to tolerance and understanding in the world. He has served as chairman of the executive committees of the Board of Trustees of Brigham Young University and of the Church Board of Education. The Church Educational System includes not only Brigham Young University's Utah and Hawaii campuses, but Brigham Young University - Idaho in Rexburg, Idaho, LDS Business College in Salt Lake City, elementary and secondary schools in developing countries, and hundreds of seminaries and institutes of religion serving several hundred thousand high school- and college-age youth. President Hinckley married Marjorie Pay in the Salt Lake Temple in 1937. They have five children. Sister Hinckley passed away 6 April 2004. President Hinckley followed her on January 27, 2008, at the age of 97.

He first flew in 1913 with famous aviatrix Melli Beese while in Berlin, Germany. He graduated from Brigham Young University in 1916 and started Pacific Airways in Ogden in 1927. Under his leadership Pacific Airways led the way in a number of innovations in flight, including the air-dropping of supplies to forest-fire fighting crews, and the airborne census of big game. The company also established an outstanding record of 10 years without a fatal accident. In 1938, President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Hinckley to the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA), the forerunner of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). His first project was to oversee the construction of Washington National Airport in the nation's capital. (Under his leadership the airport was built by 1940, well ahead of schedule and in record time.) In 1939, the President appointed Hinckley Chairman of the CAA and called upon him to make a reality of Hinckley's greatest dream for aviation: an educational base from which aviation could grow. This vision was manifested in the Civilian Pilot Training Program (CPTP). ------ I'd Rather Be Born Lucky Than Rich: The Autobiography of Robert H. Hinckley ------- By Robert H. Hinckley and JoAnn Jacobsen Wells Brigham Young University Press No. 7 Charles Redd Monographs in Western History, 1977 160 pages. By any reckoning, Robert H. Hinckley is a remarkable man. Very few of Utah's native sons have compiled such an outstanding record of service in so many different areas - business, agriculture, education, and perhaps most notably, government service and politics. Certainly his story deserves to be told. Despite the title, a great deal more than mere luck was responsible for Hinckley's successes and his community and his country have been richer for his contributions. This volume recounts Hinckley's origins from Mormon pioneer stock in central Utah, his early life in Provo and education at Brigham Young High School, and his courtship and marriage of Abrelia Clarissa Seely. He served a mission to Germany (where he met another young Utahn named Marriner Eccles), taught in North Sanpete High School, opened an automobile dealership, and was elected to the state legislature at the age of twenty-eight. Two years later he was elected mayor of Mt. Pleasant. The most significant part of the book for historians begins with the Great Depression and Hinckley's move to the nation's capital to do his part in the relief effort of Franklin D. Roosevelt's "New Deal." Hinckley became Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Air in 1940, playing an important role in the building of Washington's National Airport. His efforts also helped give thousands of young men rudimentary flight training anticipating the mobilization of the country's aviation resources prior to World War II. Other significant government and private sector service in the early 1940s prepared him for his part with Ed Noble in the early 50s, in the creation of the ABC television network. His interest in the political arena spurred him to establish the nonpartisan Hinckley Institute of Politics at the University of Utah in 1966. In fact, the scope and diversity of Robert Hinckley's undertakings make it impossible to do him justice in a brief recapitulation. But saying that Hinckley is a remarkable man is not quite the same as saying this is a remarkable book. To the contrary, this seventh number in the Charles Redd Monographs in Western History has several shortcomings that demand comment. The prose style is uneven and awkward in places; the tone often resembles a kind of rambling oral history memoir rather than the polished writing we might expect of a man of distinction. It is a little difficult to determine to what audience the book was directed. While scholars will find unnecessary the accounts of historical events about which Hinckley possessed little special knowledge (e.g., the choice of the Democratic Party's vice- presidential candidate in 1960), the general reader will probably learn more than he really wants to know about relief measures in the 1930s or contract settlement at the end of World War II. For the most part, it is evident that the editors did their homework and put Mr. Hinckley's papers to good use in reconstructing his story, but a few factual errors remain: The Texas Congressman who first brought Lyndon Johnson to Washington was named Kleberg, not Klebert; Johnson was majority leader in the 1950s, not Democratic whip of the Senate; and at one point (page 83) the implication seems to be that the Second World War began in Europe in the spring of 1939 rather than on September 1. There are a few typographical errors but not so many as to be distracting. We suspect that the author occasionally indulged in namedropping, but hearing first-hand about his dealings with Fiorello LaGuardia, Lucius Clay, Jimmy Doolittle, James Forrestal, Jesse Jones, Elmer Davis, and a score of other important historical personages is half the fun. Hinckley is not reluctant to tell you where he stood concerning the events he witnessed and that may constitute the most valuable part of this work. He was a Democrat all his life "because Democrats were for people," while "Republicans were in favor of things - things like high tariffs to protect business." Some readers may take issue with his assertion on two separate occasions that "Roosevelt and Hopkins together are the reason America didn't go communistic." "During the Hoover Administration, the American populace was ready to go communistic." But few will quarrel with his conclusion that "political wallflowers don't make our democracy work" and that the best way to improve the system is, in Harry Truman's words, "to improve the breed" of politicians. That much Robert Hinckley seems to have tried very hard to do, and if this book inspires more people, young or old, to emulate his example of public service it will have been well worth the effort.
