Ruth Hunter born 24 Sep 1764 Wilkes Co. Ga. died 15 May 1826 Greene Co. Ga. married 17 Jun 1874 Warren Co. Ga. William Greene Rev. Sol. -10 children, #1 Lemuel married Nancy Ann Merritt #1- who is sister to my Elizabeth Merritt married Ezekiel Brown- chidren of William Merritt -and Ezekiel of Wm. & Sara, all of Greene Ruth was the child of Jesse Hunter of Elbert Co. Ga.Rev. Sol. died 1786 and nne Hinton lston born 29 Mar 1738. Notes on Jesse: his child added by Boddie's book ..Hunter of Nansemond Co page 131..HISTORICAL SOUTHERN FAMILIES Vol II WHAT'S YOUR FAMILY LINE? by Adella Bartlett H.... Ga. Mag. pg 32 no date. He moved to Elbert Co. Ga. shortly after the war. He was the son of Isaac Hunter of Chowan Co NC son of William of Nansemond Co. Va. & Joane, and these two are my line. Isaac had a son Elisha who died 1786 NC married before 1750 Ann Walton. I show 5 of their children., only 1 male, and nothing on him, and of course there may have been more children. Isaac's son Jacob born Apr. 1737 & Sarah Hill, had an Isaac born 29 Aug 1759 d 1816 Isaac had an Isaac, but I know no more about him. Knowing how families tended to stick together, and that part of this family was in next door (And once a part of Greene) Hancock Co. Ga. it seems a good place to start. Vincent Sanford born 17 Apr 1777 died 27 May 1859 was the child of Jeremiah Sanford born 4 Nov 1739 Louden Co, Va died 11 Aug 1835 Greene Co. Ga. and Mary Modesset.They had 6 other children. (more on some) Vincent married Priscilla Palmer born 15 Jul 1776 died 9 May 1857 (Her sister Ada married Jeremiah Jr.) I only know of one child-Seadman Vincent Dean of Univ. of Ga. I did not know about second wife. my notes on him: He settled nr. Greensboro Community Greene Co. Ga. Member of the faculty of Mercer Univ. for almost 50 years. Author of arithmetic and algebra books used in Ga. Schools. Gerry Hill- Albany Ga.
