Hello Rooters, I have long assumed that all the HUNTs in Taylor and Marion Counties, the older lines at least, were descended from Ambrose HUNT and his sons. I have diligently been searching for all the connections I can find to Ambrose HUNT, who came from Halifax Co., VA and settled in that part of Green County that became Taylor County in 1848, namely, the Pitman Creek watershed. I have found a number of HUNT marriages from Taylor County on FTM CD #233 Marriage Index: Kentucky, 1851-1900 that I cannot identify. They are: Dernia Hunt to J. R. Mardis, Jr., 1 Jan 1885 E. M. Hunt to Emma C. Rivers, 10 Feb 1887 Eliza Jane Hunt to Stephen J. Parrott, 27 Dec 1883 G. W. Hunt to Amry McWear, 6 Sep 1880 George W. Hunt (may be the same) to Nancy Francis Wade, 1 Jan 1885 James A. Hunt ( I may have this one) to Mack Shipp, 18 May 1888 James T. Hunt to Mary A. Dye, 13 Nov 1887 John C. Hunt to Emma J. Caulk, 18 Jan 1883 For some reason this CD does not list Marion Co., KY marriages. If there are any researchers on these lists that can shed some light on these HUNTs and their lineage, I would be most grateful for whatever information you would share. It would certainly close some big gaps I have in my database. Gratefully, M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY mdeanhunt@aol.com
