Does anyone have info on a Thomas Hunt who was captured by the Indians. Can anyone tell me about "the two principal Hunt lines in old Sussex trace from pioneer brothers, either from Samuel Hunt, Jr. or from his younger brother, Thomas Hunt" (Pioneer Families of Northern New Jersey) Apparently there was a Thomas Hunt, not the Indian capitve, who settled at Whitehouse, Somerset County and then moved to Fredon, Sussex Co.

Hello, Have you read Snell? History of Sussex and Warren counties,New Jersey by James P. Snell published 1881 there are a lot of Hunts! Page 433 has Hunt's Mill in Green Township, It starts with Joseph B. and Theodore F. Hunt owning the mill, that it has been in the hands of the Hunt family, from when it was erected in 1780, by Ralph Hunt d.1821 who Married Elizabeth Phillips. Ralph's father was Samuel Hunt, who died in 1752 and buried at Hunt's Pond along with Ralph and other family members after him. pg.434 has a bio and sketch of Samuel H.
