Dear Conrad; Your statement below indicates you have a vast knowledge of the N.C. Hunter's, and I am looking for sources. What are the Myrtle Cranford papers and how can I get a copy ? . I am related to a John Hunter who married Ann Andrews and lived in Orange county, N.C.. Is this Mecklenburg tribe related to this family ? Best regards; Dave "All if the Mecklenburg Hunters came directly to NC via Charleston port from Derry 1760-80s. There is another Hunter branch in Winston-Salem NC. that came from VA. the best known was John Hunter, leader of the Regulators. There may be something of note in the Myrtle Cranford papers that are in the Winston-Salem NC Room of the public library."
