      Frederica Lightsey Hinely, the daughter of J. Fred Lightsey and Annie Estelle Young, was born and raised in Fairfax, SC, in the home of her grandparents and parents. She took piano lessons from age 6 through high school. As a little girl, she liked playing with paper dolls and would string them out all over the house. She remembers that her summer chore was to sweep the upstairs and downstairs porches to give the maid a break. She also remembers doing embroidery and needlework and listening to the radio in the evening. Sewing remained an interest all her life. She took the Bishop Method of Sewing Construction course while living in Washington, DC. She was Lutheran all her life. Frederica graduated in 1933 from Winthrop College in Rock Hill, SC. Following graduation, Frederica worked and kept the books at the newly opened Fairfax Cash Depository. She married Lacy Walton Hinely on June 12, 1937 in Fairfax, Allendale County, SC.
