Sandi: You really have my curiousity stirred by Samuel Rodman Hunter as I have always suspected some early Hunters were in some way connected to my gggrandparents - William and Sarah (Freke) Hunter who came to Knox County, Ohio, between 1851 census of Gloucestershire and 1853 when the youngest child was born in Knox County. Sarah (Freke) Hunter was the daughter of Constantine Freke and Jane Peasley. Constantine was the son of William Freke (Freake) and Mary Rodman. The Freke and Hunters (my line) were all born in Bitton, St. Marys area of southern Gloucestershire, England. My Hunters were intermarried with the Simpson line who settled in Knox County (area of Danville) having come from Northumberland County, Pa. Possible we may have a connection? I do not have documentation of this information with the exception of a birth certificate for one of the children of William and Sarah Hunter who was born in Cheltenham, Gls. I was on a mailing list in England and found that the family records are with the Bristol and Avon Family History Society but due to family health issues I have not checked this out. My apologies to the list for this lengthy post. Loretta in Ohio
