No I'm sorry, it isn't mine -- yours is from the other Yell Co., AR line of
Hunts; the one that Merrill Pence () is researching. In
his material he shows:
1) 1/1/1/7 James Hunt 22, m. 5 Feb. 1883, Mary S. Millard 16, both
of Blue Ball, Scott Co., AR.

I think that (based upon the same Merrill Pence originated materials from
which I just quoted) your James Hunt is the son of
DANIEL HUNT, b. In. 1821?, d. 187?, Yell Co., AR.,
m. at 21 yrs, 8 Aug. 1841 Amanda McClain 18, in Yell Co., AR.,
both from Yell Co., AR.
who was the son of 1/1 William and Elizabeth
who was the son of Daniel and Polly Wiseman Hunt.
