I wonder if your William Hunt could be one of the missing children of Peter Hunt and Nancy George of Sullivan County? Nancy was the daughter of James J. George and Elizabeth Pemberton. Peter and Nancy had a son who was named Pemberton. When and where did your William P. Hunt die? What documentation do you have that gives his middle name as Pemberton? Your William P. Hunt is listed on the 1850 Sullivan Co. TN (1st Division, p. 48)census with 2 other children who do not appear with the family listing on the 1860 census: George P., 5, and Elbert, 3. It is possible that they died before 1860. Wm. was listed as a blacksmith on the 1850 census and had a 20 year old apprentice living with him. The use of the given names Nancy and George and the family name Pemberton suggests there could be a connection, but it proves nothing. Much more research would have to be done. Peter Hunt does not mention a son named William in his will; however, if your William died before Peter, then he would not have been mentioned in the will. I am a 4th great-granddaughter of Peter and Nancy Hunt and will pass this message on to any of my Hunt relatives who may not be on this list.
