I have Robert Hunt born 1816, had brothers Richard, Thomas, William and James. Then Robert married Isabel and had Richard, who had brother John and sister Rachel Hannah. Richard had umpteen children, with his wife Elizabeth Bibby, and I have traced the Bibbys to living relatives. Richard's son Richard was my grandfather and they lived in Blackpool. If anyone knows of William Henry Hunt born 1881 in Preesall, and emigrated to South Africa when he was grown up, all I know is that he had maybe 2 sons, one of whom was called Miles. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elizabeth Russell" <lizbon@optonline.net> To: <hunt@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2007 9:48 AM Subject: Re: [HUNT] Hunts of Preesall, lancashire >I have a Hunt connection in Lancashire also. > > My 3x great grandmother, Catherine Corlett had a son John James Hunt in > 1838 > in Douglas, Isle of Man.
