    1. [HUNTER-L] PA VAN ZANT

    3. Hi Rick: My server was down all day yesterday.... gosh, that just drives me crazy, when I know the emails are stacking up. I went back and looked at the cemetery source I mentioned. I was correct, there were a large number of Van Zants, however, spelling different. Bensalem Presybeterain Church Cemetery in Bucks, CO. listed several Vanzandt, and a couple Vansant. But, no Van Zant. Since your George spelled his Van Zant, and so did Mary Jane, I tend to beleive that Van Zant is correct. However, you never know... so, need to keep this source in mind. I've been thinking about the date of our two Hunters... they may be realted. George may be a child of a brother to Mary Jane. Speculation, yes... but, may be possible given the size of famalies in those days. Incidentlly, I found another Scott, while I was looking, Must have over looked him before... I also found, in another record, of land and title, in Philadelphia Co, in 1734 a GEORGE HUNTER of Oley, in Philadelphia Co. In late January a very kind lady in Bucks Co. did a look up on Scotts and Hunters for me. In the Bristol Cemetery she found 9 Hunters listed. If you do go this summer this may be worth your time. She also noted that what she was using was not complete record as it was taken from inscriptions, and that complete records were microfilmed a few years back and available through the LDS only. Since I am just in early phase of gathering info I have not had a chance to pursue this lead... Hope some of this helps. SANDI [email protected] CA
