I'm trying to help another "hunter" and thought I'd post this: Does anyone have any basic information on James Hunt, son of Rev. James Hunt, Presbyterian Minister, and grandson of the James Hunt "Sr." who died in Charlotte Co. VA, 1795 ? I'd like to discover some basics, like exactly where he lived 1785-1795, if he married and to whom, names of children if any, and where he died. I estimate this younger James Hunt was born 1760-1765, possibly in NC or VA, but probably in Maryland, and was no doubt growing up in Prince George's County, Maryland, at the time his father opened a school at Bladensburg in 1770. So far, I haven't been able to spot this James in Maryland records. If my age estimate is close enough he might have been one of several James Hunts who survived military service in Maryland during the Revolution, but I'm "not there yet" in the search process. There is ample evidence for his existence and having been alive (somewhere) in 1794. This James and his younger brother, William Pitt, were named in their father's Montgomery County, Maryland will written 1785. So far, this James hasn't appeared in records for settling the estate, but I've not quite completed the detailed searches. In his will Rev. James left all his property of every kind to his wife Ruth and 2 sons, including land in Maryland and a tract in Charlotte Co. VA. William Pitt Hunt apparently removed to Charlotte Co. VA near the end of 1796 bringing 17 blacks from his father's estate, and then dying in 1797 leaving a pregnant widow and 3 very young children. Nothing comparable has been found for son James. Would appreciate hearing from anyone with either data or clues. I have many more details not mentioned here, but they don't directly address the questions. Bill Hunt, Fairport
