Hi everyone... with all this talk about PA Hunters I thought that maybe some of you would know something about the Hunter family that was in Etna, Allegheny County, PA. My ggggrandfather was Joseph D. Hunter (b 1812, d. 1858), son of Joseph and Mary Hunter... he was married to Catherine Boyer. They had 7 children- John S, Matthew C, Henry W, James G, Joseph D Jr, William H, and Mary E. Joseph D. Jr was my gggrandfather (b. 1847, d. 1912) He married Martha E. Taylor and they had 4 children... Oliver E.C., Mabel E. T., Joseph C. W., and Mary C. Oliver was my great grandfather, born in 1880, died 1954. He was married to Louise Bratschie in 1907. Any names in this line sound familiar to anyone? I don't know much of anything behind Joseph D. Jr and Catherine Boyer... I've heard that the family came from New Jersey to PA prior to 1812 when my ggggrandfather was born... but I've also heard that they came from Scotland... I don't know which is true. Perhaps they came from Scotland to NJ then PA? If anyone knows anything that might be helpful, I would really appreciate it. I've reached a dead end. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Ed, Saw a Hunter-Boyer site somewhere ...will have to check and get back to you. As I recall it had a Dahl family name ( know some from Franklin & Bedford co.) The site was quite extensive.
