Greetings!

According to the US Census of 1990, there are zero towns with the name
of Hine and one named Hines in Oregon, with a population of 1,452. 
There is also a Hines Township in Michigan, with a population of 556.

There are zero towns with the name of Hynes.

Thus, there are zero states with either a town of Hine or Hynes and
zero states with both.

This is from the Tiger list of place names, available at 
http://www.census.gov/ftp/pub/tiger/tms/gazetteer/places.txt

Caution - over 3.2 megabyte download.  

This information can also be searched at the US Gazetter from the US
Census:
http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/gazetteer

Now, if you look world wide (not guaranteed to be accurate) we search
at the Geographic Names Database at:
http://gnpswww.nima.mil/geonames/GNS/index.jsp

for all populated places.  

Hine comes up 3 times at these latitude and longitude coordinates:
33° 20' 49" N 035° 56' 33" E
09° 17' 00" N 038° 06' 00" E
09° 08' 00" N 038° 25' 00" E

However, Hynes did not come up on any search.  This database only
covers about 2,880,532 place names, so it may not have all of them.

I hope this has answered your question -- if you require further
information, please ask for a clarification before rating this answer.
 One note - this data is from 1990, so places established in the 1990s
will not appear.
