Bruce, my furtherist back Hunter was a Joseph Hunter b: 1690.He lived in York Co., PA which could have been part of Lancaster depending on what time period it was.His wife was unknown.He had 5 children...4 daughters & 1 son, Joseph.Joseph moved South to Virginia.When his sister Frances married Wm. Dinwiddie in 1771, he sold his farm and all equipment to them and moved on.I'm not sure where he went from there.I have found a Joseph Hunter in E. TN and also KY.I do have a Mary Hunter b: <1765 in PA married to another Wm Dinwiddie. a cousin to the first.
Agnes, another sister to Frances also married a Wm Dinwiddie.Does any of this ring a bell?I would love to find any further info.
I have a copy of a letter Joseph, Sr. wrote to the authorities during the "French & Indian War" begging for protection from the Indians.
