I am very interested in learning more about your line of Hunts. My ancestors name is John Hunt (as is a few trillion others). However this John Hunt turned up in Western Samoa. We don't know exactly when he arrived but his first child was born in 1852. His gravestone states that he was born 5th August 1822. The only other information known is general hearsay that has been passed through the family part of which states that he was a sailor (which is why I'm very interested in your email Margaret) and that he came from Birmingham. Does anyone have a John Hunt that disappeared around this time with this birthdate?
