Ga Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Ga/Columbia/570 Surname: Hunt, Sanders, Holmes, White ------------------------- I've spent some time going through my Hunt files for any mention of your William Lucius HUNT. Unfortunately, I failed to come up with anything that would support your hypothesis. Our Henry HUNT of Tipperary wasn't in Georgia until 1773 at the earliest. He had numerous children, but only three sons (and possibly two daughters) took up residence in Georgia, FitzMaurice, William and Thomas. FitzMaurice married Sarah ROBESON and had a mess of daughters and the son you have seen reference to, Henry H. HUNT. I have a family group sheet for FitzMaurice made up by one of his descendents that also lists a son, James HUNT, in this family. I don't believe that any marriage or children are shown for James HUNT. Forgive my vagueness. I don't have these papers in front of me as I write. William HUNT married Jane LANDERS in Columbia Co. and died childless. I do not know whether he is the William HUNT who married Mary CARROLL. Thomas HUNT is said to have married Isabella LOVELACE (according to a grandson) and had two children, Constantia HUNT who married Green DOZIER, and Henry HUNT who married Lucinda SANDERS in 1816. This probably eliminates this Henry HUNT as the father of your Wm. Lucius. Thomas HUNT may have married Sarah MILES as a second wife. There are however entries for a William, Martha, William S., and Ziba HUNT in Columbia Co. Tax lists for 1827 and 1830. These HUNTS are shown to own land in Early and Carroll Cos., besides Columbia Co. I don't believe they are connected to the Henry HUNT family. Good luck.
