GEORGE WASHINGTON HUNTER I OF DANVILLE, IOWA

AND HIS DESCENDANTS

 

George Washington Hunter, the index person of this genealogical summary, was born on March 5, 1821 in Burlington Township, Licking County, Ohio.  His parents were George Hunter and Martha Conner. Not a great deal is known of George and Martha.  While it cannot be proved, the assumption has been that both migrated to Licking County from Pennsylvania.  Records indicate they were married in Licking County on March 25, 1813. George was born in 1796 and died in Burlington Township, Ohio on February 1, 1837.  Martha Conner Hunter birth date is unknown but she died in Burlington Township, Ohio on September 15, 1888.  Both are buried in the Homer Cemetery, Burlington Township, Ohio.
