Hunter, Where is Morganton located in NC? John Hunter, brother of Alexander, lived and died in Guilford Co., NC. Jane (Hunter) Martin came to NC after Hugh died to live and she died not long after her son the governor. My line comes from John and Henrietta (Davidson, she is listed in the book as John's wife), not comletely sure yet)) Hunter. Their daughter Alley/ Elly Hunter married a Joseph Tate, they lived also in Guilford Co. they died there. Their daughter Frances Tate married a Robert J. Ralston. Their son John Tate Ralston married a Lettie Harris. Their daughter Clariss J. Ralston married Benjamin Lawson Parks (these are my 2nd grt-grandparents). The Parks came from Va. to NC, Ga. and Ala. My grandmother was the last Parks in the family. She married a John Green Christian. The Christians are from the Ilse of Man, Va. Ga., Ala. and Texas. I am a direct decendant of Thomas Christian that came to Virginia about 1650 or so. So we are very "distant" cousins after all. Chris
