  • Notes 
    • This Thomas Hunt's Find a Grave page gives his birth as "probably bef. 1711" and his parents as "William (IV) Hunt and Sarah (Wyche) Hunt", but it appears that the Thomas Hunt who was this couple's son died in 1759 and mentions no son Henry in his will.

      From the Find a Grave page for Thomas Hunt (citation details below):

      Thomas Hunt served in the Revolutionary War and swore the oath of allegiance in North Carolina on October 08, 1754 of the Granville Co., VA Militia in Capt. Benjamin Simms Company, under the command of of Col. William Eaton. [...]

      Thomas Hunt's will dated 26 Sept. 1790 (rec'd. Mar. 1791, Franklin Co., NC) included grandchild, Josiah Massey, son of a dau, dec'd., who married Drury Massey (will book A; p. 121 shows Hardy Hunt as guardian for Josiah Massey's part of his grandfather's estate...$28 1/2, and has for son Drury Massey). Franklin Co., NC - Wills (bk. A; p. 76A).
