John HUNT
(1658 - Bef 1735)
!Internet 11-1997 by Col. Sandy B. Hunt: Shows John Hunt, son of Ralph has four sons John, Samuel, Edward, & Ralph were early settlers in Hopewell NJ, where they are mixed in with various uncles and cousins with similar names.
The census of Newtowne LI taken in August 1698 lists John Hunt as head of a family of seven. the Charity Hunt who m. Robert Alison 29 Nov 1720 (records of 1st Presby. Church, Nedwtown LI) may have been the daughter of John and Joanna. This would account for the missing 7th person in the household of John Hunt in the 1698 census. Wyman shows John chosen surveyor of highways 20 March 1701, constable 2 April 1706, and "a magistrate for many years". By deed of 4 June 1714 Alexander Lockhart of Hopewell Twp. NJ conveyed to John Hunt of Newton NJ a tract of 500 acres in Hopewell bounded East by Stony Brook, North by Samuel Davis, West by Capt. Hannet, and sSouth by Johannes Lawrenson. THis purchase was apparently intended to benefit his four sons (John, Samuel, Edward and Ralph) who soon moved to that area. His son John appears tro have been the first to move because as "John Hunt of Hopewell" he was m. to Margaret Moore at Newtown, LI 8 Feb. 1714 and settled in Hopewell, NJ where he died testate in 1748. By deed of 7 March 1725 John Hunt and wife Joanne, Of Newtown LI conveyed a tract of 100 acres at Newtown to William Howard, and thereafter disappear from Newtown records. No death or probate records have been discovered for John or Joanna.
Mr. Preston Hill of 14126 Ipswich st Westminister CA 92683-4 126 has submitted much on RALPH, however it is all third party and not documented. His information was discarded as speculative. Probaably most came from LDS which is always suspect when it comes to documentation.
