Russell, Thanks for the offer, but at this time I know of only one thing anyone could do for me and I think it is a little out of anyone on earth's reach. If you have a cure for someone with prostrate cancer with a psa of 351. I have very little time to spend on research at this time, but have researched the Hunter family for over 25 years. Below you will find the record of proof for Nicholas Hunters father. Also I have a copy of the original will of Nicholas and of Rebecca's. Although you cannot read Rebecca's. Over the years hers has discolored in such a way that very few of the words can be read. There is a codicil that is still legible. I hope every one that is researching this line will enjoy these documents. They are copied from the originals held in the Archives in Raleigh, NC. William Hunter, father of Nicholas did leave a will, but it did not survive through the years. Nicholas's will follows the deeds.

One abstract is from "Abstract of North Carolina Wills Compiled from Original and Recorded Wills in the Office of the Secretary of State", J. Bryan Grimes, page 177, the other is from "The North Carolina Historical and Genealogical Register", J. R. B. Hathaway, 1979, page 48. Both are a little bit different. Comparison of the two and additionalresearch has led me to believe that "Labbeus" may be Lebbens and that "Lillah" is Zillar. Do you have a source for William (the weaver) as father of Nicholas? I've found several early William Hunters, but the only will I found record of is one made 29 April 1720 recorded in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, 29 July 1720 which names wife Elizabeth; daughters Mary, Ann, Martha; brother James.

Looking for ANY information on children of Frank & Helen HUNTER (my cousins) who lived in Long Island, New York during the 1930's. That is all the information I have on my uncle and family...any further info would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, Looking for information on Hunters from Washington State. My great grandmother, Della Hunter was born in Kansas in 1888. I know that her family moved to Northern Washington State around the turn of the century, unfortunatly we don't know who her parents are. However, her brothers and sister's names are: Elsie, Nellie, Forrest, and Lyle. If anyone has any information on these siblings or their parents, please contact me.

Millie Hunter was born in Genesee County, New York and married William Carter in 1830, who died in Oxford County, Ontario, Canada. Probably Millie died there too. There children are: Joel, b 7 Feb 1834 * Keziah, b 9 August 1839 Henry Oliver Sarah Ann Cynthia Edward Harvey Millie Ann Emma J Hamilton

Looking for William HUNTER was born we believe in either NY or PA in abt 1774. His parents are said to have came from IRE by way of CAN. He was living in PA around early 1800. William married Jane CARR(E) bef 1792 in PA. They had the following known children; Anderson R. abt 1792, Jabez abt 1800, Samuel - Jan 1820, George M. - 1826, and Jackson - 1830. I'm sure there were more children born to them. Sometime bet 1808-1812 William moved to OH where his sons had moved and his is found living with his grand daughter. He is said to have been a preacher probably of the Baptist Faith. SECOND GENERATION I know little about these son except Anderson R. and Samuel. Anderson served as a Justice of the Peace in Rockford, OH from 1832-1850. He married twice, first to Mary GRAVES and second toRebecca LILLIES\ANTONIDES. Rebecca was the widow of Jonathon Antonides. Anderson had the following known children; Anderson Jr, Jane, Martha, and Nancy Ann. Anderson died on Dec 1857 in Rockford, OH. Samuel L. Hunter married first an Ann ?? who we know nothing about at this time and second, Lydia HEISLER on Jun 5, 1851 in Henderson CO, IL. Lydia was born in 1833 in OH. Samuel and Lydia had the following known children; Charles Franklin - 1852, Hannah Jane - 1853, Sarah Elizabeth - 1855, John W. - 1858, Joseph - 1860, Mary - 1862, William - 1865, Deliah - 1867, Harriet "Hattie" - 1869, Olive E. - 1871 and Lydia Alline - 1874. Samuel and Lydia lived in Henderson Co, IL where all the children were born. Samuel died in 1902 and Lydia in 1901 in Republic CO, KS where his daughter lived. Jackson Hunter married a women named CALEY or EALEY on Mar 23, 1854 in Henderson CO, IL. This is all we know about them at this time. These Hunter's stayed mostly in Mercer, Auglaize, Ross and Stark CO's in OH until they moved to OK in the early 1900's while some of them moved to Ft. Wayne, ID and Henderson CO, IL and finally on to KS. I hope you see something that will connect us. I would love to exchange any information with you. Georgann whunter@omniglobal.net

Nicholas Hunter (1680-1749) was a son of William ("the weaver") Hunter of Nansemond County, VA, which later became Chowan County, NC. Nicholas' will was probated in Carteret County, NC in the March court. (I have abstract of will). Nicholas' wife #2 was Rebecca (perhaps maiden name of Hardy...not positive) Nicholas had Isaac (1705-1749) m.

His parents were William and Joane. Nicholas father is documented. I descend through his daughter Keziah who married Abraham Mitchell and their son George.

Hello Flora, My line of Hunters and Collins comes from the Northeast area of PA (Susquehanna, Wayne,Lackawanna, and Luzurne counties), there has been some mention of the Woods name orally, although I have yet to find a connection or research this. Are your Hunters from this area of PA?

Sorry, but I have no knowledge of any of the people listed in your e-mail. I am new, having just subscribed yesterday and have not had a chance to submit any of my Hunter data yet. Bill Hunter Allison Park, PA

Would you mind listing your source for this information? I would like to have it for my records as I too am hunting for my Hunter roots but have come to a dead end. My Hunter group was in NJ 1800......Aaron Hunter, but do not know his parents names or the county in NJ from which he came. This Hunter family was to have traveled into PA with the Woods and Collins families. Do you know anything about those families? I appreciate your help. Thanks for your time.
