A collection of historical and genalogical records

Lt Thomas Hunt, Sr.

Generation 1) Lt Thomas Hunt

A grandson of Lt Thomas Hunt, Sr., one, Gawton Hunt, impressed the Hunt seal on his will. It is impressed about three inches below his signature and measures 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch. When I am addressing the third generation of Hunts I shall provide details and how I am able to point to Shropshire as the place of birth for Lt Hunt.

While researching today I found several court cases that Thomas Hunt was named.  The web site is   https://www.colonial-settlers-md-va.us/getperson.php?personID=I0810...

Look under notes there are about 12 references with Thomas Hunt named.

Making conections

The more information you can give about the people you mention, the more chance there is of someone else connecting with your family.

Dates and places of births, deaths and marriages all help to place families.

Professions also help.

'My great-grandmother mother was a Douglas from Montrose' does not give many clues to follow up! But a bit of flesh on the bones makes further research possible. But if we are told who she married, what his profession was and where the children were baptised, then we can get to work.

Maybe it is time to update the information in your profile?
