Looking for parents of Richard M. HUNT, b. 1824, probably in Wilson Co., Tennessee. He died in 1896 in Gibson Co., TN, before death certificates were issued. >From the 1830 and 1840 US census records it appears that his father is either Mathew or John HUNT, or Samuel HUNT in Rutherford Co., TN. But John HUNT's will did not name a son Richard. Richard M. HUNT's first son is named John M. HUNT. But there is more of a simlarity between the names of children of Richard M. HUNT and Matthew HUNT.
