Individual Details

Ralph Hunt first appears in Long Island in 1652; he arrived with a boat of Englishmen, so it is assumed that he was also from England. At that time he was married and had one daughter, Anna. Later he had four sons (Edward, Ralph, John, and Samuel) and one more daughter (Mary). His children and grandchildren primarily settled in Maidenhead and Hopewell Township in New Jersey. Following that, many of his descendants traveled along to Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Iowa, Illinois, Mississippi, and Oklahoma, and ultimately to the west coast.

He was an early leader in Middleburg (aka Middleborough, Hastings, Newtowne, and now Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island), where he served as a magistrate, freeholder, and later a Lieutenant. During this time he also bought Middleborough from the local Indian tribes. During the British takeover of New York, Ralph Hunt beat arms against the Dutch and showed his support of a British government. When the Dutch left New York, he surveyed for the new town.
