    "日野" Hino is formed by the 2 kanji "Hi" - sun and "no" field. This family could have come from a place where the sun shone on the fields. There is a less common kaji "樋野" which also can be found in Japanese names meaning "hi" - waterway (gutter) and "no" fields. This family could have been living near waterways to the fields or could have been in charge of the water to the fields.
