Hi Hunt List-- I've rejoined you after a several month absence and here's the Hunt I am looking for now. Briefly, I had been looking for an Elizabeth HUNT who supposedly married my 3rd great-grandfather, John HOUGH, Jr. of Schooleys Mts., Morris Co., NJ. I've been looking for evidence of that couple's birth and marriage for almost three years and so far have found nothing. None of the Hough/Howe/Huff researchers to date have been able to find out anything conclusive about a Hough family in Schooleys Mts. in the mid to late 1700. However, I feel pretty comfortable that John Hough was the father of my 2nd great-grandfather, Anthony HOUGH (1780-1865) because it is listed as so on Anthony's death record; I just don't know where he came from! This family ended up in Wantage Township, Sussex Co., NJ in the late 1700s and stayed there at least for the next 100 years. The mystery lady that I am now looking for is Sarah HUNT who married a John HOUGH in Sussex Co., NJ on August 17, 1800, per the Sussex County marriage records. I am thinking perhaps that the family history got confused somewhat and we are not looking for an Elizabeth Hunt born around 1750 but a Sarah born a bit later instead. There was a John HOUGH and his wife, Sarah (Sally) HOUGH who were involved in a land transaction in 1815/1816 in Sussex Co. with Anthony HOUGH and his wife, Elizabeth. Of course I am just guessing that this is the same John and Sarah who were married in 1800. I feel that there has got to be a HUNT there somewhere because from the early 1800s on it was common to use Hunt as a middle name for the males. And so, does anyone have a Sarah or Sally HUNT, born from 1770 to 1780, possibly in any of the northern NJ counties--Warren, Morris, Hunterdon, Sussex or Passaic or, Orange Co., NY or perhaps in eastern PA? I appreciate any and all thoughts you may have on my continuing search for a Hunt in my family tree. Regards to you from Austin, TX, Marilyn Hough Stern
