Simon HUNT was born about 1750 in Baltimore co., Maryland. He died in 1814 in Washington Co., Tennessee. Information on this line comes from (Mrs.) Lucy Gump, 703 N. Mtn. View Circle, Johnson City, Tn. 37601. She states it is not proven. Her husband, Louie, is descended from RIN# 2674, Mary "Polly" Hunt, who married Peter Miller Jr. I have taken the liberty to combine "Nacky" Hunt & Nancy Hunt as the same child. This may not be correct, but I propose that they are probably the same person and "Nacky" is a nickname for Nancy.
