Hi Jackie, Not being so precise in my post has lead to several responses about Rutherford County, TN Hunts. I should have said Rutherford County, North Carolina. My Thomas Hunt family moved from Rutherford County, NC to Blount County, TN early in the 1820's and then on to Texas in several moved from about 1847 to 1851. Those Hunt Taylor marriages I referred to were in Rutherford County, NC.
