Individual Details

Mary Hunt

(28 August 1692 - )

Mary Proctor the "wife of Joseph Proctor" is mentioned as an heir in the will of John Langdon. However, she is not listed as one of his six children, and his daughter named Mary is married to a Hunt. So, Mary Langdon Proctor is related to him somehow, but how? It turns out, she was Mary Hunt, the daughter of Thomas Hunt and Judith Torrey. She first married a John Langdon in 1713 and was a widow when she married Joseph Proctor in 1722. The probate administration from 1724 identifies heirs as selling a property of Thomas Hunt and these include Joseph Proctor and wife Mary. Other information suggests that the first husband of Mary Hunt, John Langdon, was a son of the John Langdon whose will is mentioned above; her husband was a mariner and died in 1722 (NEHGR, volume 30, p. 35). The mariner John Langdon, son of John, was born in 1698 so it is a stretch that he was the husband of Mary. Another option is John Langdon born in 1682 the son of Philip and Mary Langdon. This Philip was the brother of John Langdon the elder. The whole family were mariners. I have not found any records for John Langdon the son of Philip other than his birth.
