NOTE1: I
actually maxed out the page allowance in FrontPage for this file. The
Family of Nathaniel and Ann (PORTER)
HUNTER is therefore
divided into two files. Arbitrarily divided, I've kept Nathaniel, his
research record and his first two children on this initial page. The rest
of
his children (presuming that is where most of the additional information will be
added as I find it) are on Page 2. You will find a "click here" hyperlink
to the
second page where relevant and the second page will link back to this page, much
as the current links take you to the Crichton Ancestor Page or back to the
Family Chronicles front page. I'm sorry for any inconvenience!
NOTE2: Dates on tombstones at Mt. Tabor are frequently wrong, based on
other sources,
sometimes multiple sources. Example is a marriage date from courthouse
records of 1854 and a death
date on the tombstone of 1851
for the same person. Additionally, this
person had children after his "death."
Dates given are best determinations, based on all available sources - could be
off by a year or two.
NOTE3:
I found a narrative by Nathaniel C. HUNTER on the internet. It
appears, based on the content and what I already
know, to be genuine. The information with an * in front is taken from that
narrative. Where it disagrees with
what I already have, I have either kept both pieces of information and indicated
Nathaniel's with an * or I
verified the information, cited the source and kept only the correct
information.

Synopsis:
Helen M. PURDY moved in 1840 from Vermont to Erie, Erie Co, PA and was raised there
History of Champaign Co, Beers, pp. 816-817: Nathaniel C. HUNTER, farmer; P.O. West Liberty, Logan Co.,; born on farm, "Forest Home," where he now resides, Nov. 1, 1825; is the son of John and Jane P. (HUMPHREY) HUNTER. He is a native of Virginia, and she of PA. The grandfather, Nathaniel, was a native of England or the north part of Ireland. The grandmother, Hester Ann (PORTER), a native of North Ireland; emigrated to America near the close of the eighteenth century, settling in the State of Virginia. In 1811, they came to Ohio, bringing four sons and four daughters, and located in Madison Co., where they remained till 1814, when they removed to Champaign Co., having previously, or about 1812, bought a large tract of land embracing the same land upon which the grandson, Nathaniel, our subject, now lives. Here they located and spent the remainder of their life; being among the early pioneers and enduring the many hardships to which they were subject. John, the father of our subject, spent his whole life in this vicinity, and was identified with much of the early history of this settlement, helping build and organize the churches and schools of that early day. He was married in 1822; they had six children, three now survive - Nathaniel C., Washington C., and William H. The latter, during the war, raised a company of men and entered the 12th O.V.C.; was promoted to Major and served through the war. Soon after he went South and entered upon the work of raising cotton; he was very unsuccessful, losing all his property. He was elected Sheriff of the Co, then Clerk of Court and Representative to the Legislature, and is now United States Commissioner at Montgomery, Ala. Washington C. is now in Michigan, an extensive fruit-grower. Mr. John HUNTER was a man who gave but limited attention to political matters; was, however, a prominent man among the people, and held many offices of the township with fidelity and trust. He was a great and active worker in the M.E. Church, filling most of the important positions in the church up to the time of his death. He died Feb. 28, 1878; his wife died July 15, 1877. Our subject was married May 17, 1849, to Miss Helen M., daughter of Graham and Hannah (COCHRAN) PURDY, natives of Vermont. They had three children - John G., Albert L. and William P. Mr. HUNTER first located upon the farm where he now lives, remaining here about three years; then went to West Liberty, Logan Co., and entered upon the mercantile business, in which he continued about six years, doing a very successful trade. During this time he was a partner in building the first steam saw-mill and the first foundry ever in West Liberty; then he returned to his farm, "Forest Home," where he has since resided. He has a beautiful home, well improved, and is a successful farmer; has several other pieces of land, owning in all 385 acres of land. His wife died April 30, 1880, after a loved companionship of nearly thirty-one years. Mr. HUNTER, though a very prominent man and farmer, never desired office and, though sometimes forced to accept some township offices, yet generally avoids them as much as possible; but, like his father, he is a very active and prominent man in the M.E. Church, holding all the important positions therein, not for popularity, but from his love for and zeal in the Christian work. He is an earnest Sabbath-school worker, being a prominent pioneer organizer of Sabbath-schools throughout this section. He has also been an active supporter of free schools, and a great worker in promoting education. We can safely say that when Mr. HUNTER's course of life is run, the community and the church will lose an ardent friend, an honored and faithful worker.
Middleton's History of Champaign Co, Ohio, pp. 332ff: Nathaniel C. HUNTER. The late Nathaniel C. HUNTER, for years one of the best-known and most substantial farmers and landowners of Salem township, this Co, who died in 1908 at his home in Urbana, where he had been living retired from the active labors of the farm for more than twenty years, was a native son of Champaign Co and all his life was spent here. He was born on the old HUNTER homestead place in Salem township on November 1, 1825, son of John and Jane (HUMPHRIES) HUNTER, prominent residents of that part of the Co, whose last days were spent there. John HUNTER was a son of Nathaniel and Anne (PORTER) HUNTER, natives of Ireland, who were among the very earliest settlers in the northern part of this Co and who took an influential part in the work of creating proper social conditions in the formative period of that now well-established and prosperous farming community. [Next section on Nathaniel and Ann is documented in the Research Record for them above] John HUNTER was twelve or thirteen years of age when the family took up their residence in this Co and he grew to manhood on the home farm in Salem township and continued farming there all his life. He married Jane HUMPHRIES, member of one of the pioneer families in that neighborhood, and to that union three children were born, Nathaniel, Washington C. and William H. HUNTER. Washington C. HUNTER was born on September 15, 1827, and grew to manhood on the home farm in Salem township. He married Agnes DUEL and after spending some years farming in this Co went to Pasadena, California, where he engaged in the lumber business and where he is still living. He and his wife were the parents of two sons, both of whom are now deceased. Major William H. HUNTER, who gained his title while serving as a soldier of the Union during the Civil War, was born on September 29, 1840, and also grew to manhood in this Co. He married a McDONALD and made his home in Salem township and in West Liberty until late in life, when he went to Birmingham, Alabama, where he engaged in the real-estate business and where he spent his last days, his death occurring there on July 31, 1904. Nathaniel C. HUNTER was reared on the farm which his grandfather had opened in Salem township and completed his schooling at Delaware, this state. For a time he was engaged in the mercantile business at Urbana and at West Liberty, but later returned to the old home farm in Salem township and there established his home, engaging in farming there until 1885, in which year he retired from the active labors of the farm and moved to Urbana, where he spent his last days, his death occurring there on February 18, 1908. During his many years of residence on the farm Mr. HUNTER was one of the most active and influential farmers in that part of the country. He was a stanch [sic] Republican and held various township offices, giving to his public service his most earnest thought. He was a great reader and kept fully informed on matters of current interest and was particularly interested in matters of local historical interest. In this connection he wrote a history of the Mt. Tabor Methodist Episcopal church, which to this day is regarded as the most authoritative history of that church and the greater part of which is reproduced in the historical section of this work. For sixty-five years Mr. HUNTER was a member of that church and during fifty years of that time was the superintendent of the Sunday school, the last eight years being superintendent in Urbana. He also held all other offices in the church at one time and another and took great pleasure in the work of the church. He was a busy man, energetic and practical and his farming and other interests prospered under his prudent management, so that he came to be recognized as one of the Champaign Co's most substantial citizens. Mr. HUNTER was twice married. It was on May 17, 1849, that he was united in marriage to Helen M. PURDY, who was born at Erie City, Pennsylvania, and who died on April 20, 1880. To that union three sons were born, John G., Albert L. and William P. Albert L. HUNTER was born on August 4, 1852, and remained a farmer on the old home place in Salem township, where he spent his last days, his death occurring there in August, 1909. He married Mary Frances NORTH and to that union four children were born, namely: Grace, who married Quincy YOCUM, of Concord township, this Co; Edna, wife of Alva KISER, of Troy, this state; Fern P. who married the Rev. Milton SWISHER and died in Iowa, and Elsie, who married Daniel LEAMMAN, a farmer living near St. Paris, this Co. William P. HUNTER was born on March 12, 1855, and died at San Antonio, Texas, January 5, 1882. John G. HUNTER, who was born on June 17, 1850, moved to Michigan, where he became a farmer and where he spent his last days, his death occurring there on January 9, 1916. He married Eva CROOKSTON and was the father of two children, Maud, wife of John CLAPPER, of Bay City, Michigan, and Charles W., who married Marybelle WILCOX and is now living at Toledo, Ohio. On January 20, 1883, Nathaniel C. HUNTER married, secondly, Mrs. Anna Eliza (SEAMAN) ENOCH, widow of Henry ENOCH, of West Liberty, who died in 1858. Since the death of her husband, Mrs. HUNTER has continued to make her home in Urbana, where she is very comfortably situated. She reared two nieces, Cora and Lavinia SEAMAN, who continue to make their home with her. Mrs. HUNTER was born at Xenia, this state, September 2, 1832, a daughter of Lewis and Lavinia (SMITH) SEAMAN, the former of whom was born in Frederick Co, Virginia, in 1805, son of Jonas and Catherine (SHEETS) SEAMAN, natives of that same Co, who came to Ohio with their family in 1810 and located at Chillicothe, a year later moving to Clinton Co, where they spent the remainder of their lives, Jonas SEAMAN dying there in 1836. Jonas SEAMAN and wife were the parents of eight children, Jonathan, Philip, George, Lewis, Jonah, Eliza, Joseph and Miles. Lewis SEAMAN became a blacksmith and left Clinton Co to locate at Xenia, where he remained engaged in that vocation until 1836, when he bought a farm in Logan Co, established his home there and spent the remainder of his life. He was an active worker in the Mt. Tabor Methodist Episcopal church and helped build two churches. He and his wife, Lavinia SMITH, were the parents of six children, those besides Mrs. HUNTER being as follow: Josiah, who died at the age of four years; William, who for some time farmed in Illinois, but later returned to the old home place in Logan Co, where he died, leaving a widow, Frances BEBEE, and one child, a daughter, Josephine; Elisha, a veteran of the Civil War, who served as a member of Company A, Sixty-sixth Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, formerly and for years a farmer and now living at Columbus, this state, who had been twice married, his first wife, Nettie VOTAW, a native of Indiana, having died on February 7, 1881, leaving three daughters, Nettie, Cora and Lavinia, after which he married Nellie FISHER, also of Indiana, and by that union has three children, Anna, Bertha and Lewis; Maria Louise, who married James STANTON and is now deceased, and Martha, who married William WINDER and died in 1894 at Urbana, this Co, leaving one daughter, Florence.
Obituary, 13 May 1880, Urbana newspaper: Helen M. HUNTER, wife of N.C. HUNTER was born in Bennington Co, VT, 23 May 1829 and died 30 April 1880. She moved with her parents to Erie City, PA in 1840 and married 17 May 1849. She moved to Champaign Co, OH. Her mother, husband and son survive.

*From the N.C. HUNTER narrative. Nathaniel C. HUNTER, second son of John and Jane HUNTER, was born in Champaign Co, Ohio, November 1, 1825. Married Helen M. PURDY of Erie City, Pennsylvania, May 17, 1849. She was born May 23, 1829 and died April 20, 1880. Nathaniel C. HUNTER, now in his 80th year, has lived long and had a very busy life being useful in his day and generation, being loyal to his country and the church. Has been a member of the Methodist Episcopal church for sixty-five years. He has always strove [sic] in his place, doing his duty without fear, favor or affection. Has served for fifty years as Sunday School Superintendent, and has filled almost all the offices in the church.
Regarding the death of his son, William P., N.C. HUNTER wrote: ..Here I copy a short memorial written by his (William P. HUNTER) pastor, Henry MILLER, pastor at Mt. Tabor at that time: "In the year 1870, under the labors of David WHITMORE, he was converted and joined the church at Mt. Tabor. In the rich soil of a pure heart bloomed and blossomed the graces of a christian life, shedding its fragrance on all around. Conscious to the last he stepped out boldly into the merky current, saying "Come lord Jesus, take me. Oh! Take me quickly." Then he was not; for God had taken him. Though young he had the welfare of the church at heart. Over one year before his death while confined to his bed he sent for me. He told me that as he was no longer able to attend the services of the church and Sabbath School of which he was a member, and render himself useful in that way, he greatly desired to give some expression of Love for the cause and society with which he was connected. Being a great lover of music and a fine musician himself, he wished to present to the Mt. Tabor society and Sabbath School, an organ for the use of the congregation and Sabbath School hoping thereby to stimulate and encourage his young friends and the congregation to rebuild and keep up this old time honored place. He then gave me a letter to read to the membership of the church asking for the privilege of so doing. The letter was filled with love and devotion was read to the whole congregation. They arose and with tears and visible emotion gratefully accepted the gift of the young Christian. From this came the inspiration to build the new and beautiful house of worship at Mt. Tabor. What a beautiful illustration of the scriptures: "'Their works do follow them" His remains were brought home from San Antonio, Texas, attended by his ever faithful father, and on the 12th of January, 1882, in the presence of a large congregation of sympathizing friends and relatives, at his old Forest Home, the solemn funeral services were held, the church being unfinished. The remains of this brilliant life were laid to rest by the side of his sainted mother, who had preceded him two years, under the shadow of the new church.
*N.C. HUNTER writes about his second wife, Eliza SEAMAN HUNTER, "She and her husband are counted among the pioneer members of Mt. Tabor, a membership of over fifty years.

Synopsis:
Middleton's History of Champaign Co,
Ohio, pp.380-381: Albert L. HUNTER. The late Albert
L. HUNTER, who died at his home in Salem township in 1909, and whose
widow is now living at Kings Creek, was born in that township and there
spent all his life, becoming one of the most substantial farmers in that
community. He was born on a pioneer farm in that township in 1845, son
of Nathaniel C. and Helen M. (PURDY) HUNTER, prominent
residents of that community, the former of whom was also born there, on the
old HUNTER homestead, son of John and Jane (HUMPHRIES) HUNTER,
the former of whom was born in Virginia, son of Nathaniel and Ann (PORTER)
HUNTER, natives of Ireland, who came to this Co [country] after
their marriage and settled in Virginia, where they remained until 1910
[1810], when they came to this state and after a brief residence in Madison
Co came over into Champaign Co and established their home in Salem
township, where they spent the remainder of their lives. In a memorial
sketch relating to the late Nathaniel C. HUNTER, father of the
subject of this memorial sketch, presented elsewhere in this volume, there
is set out at considerable length something of the history of the HUNTER
family in this Co and to that interesting narrative the reader is
respectfully referred for additional details in this connection.
Reared on the old home place, Albert L. HUNTER received his early
schooling in the school s of that neighborhood and supplemented the same by
a course in the college at Delaware. From the days of his boyhood he
had been a valuable aid to his father in the labors of the farm and after
his marriage in the late fall of 1876 he established his home on the old
home place and there continued farming for five years, at the end of which
time he took a farm in the vicinity of Cable, where he remained for nine
years. he then moved back to the old HUNTER farm, bought two
hundred acres of the same, and there spent the remainder of his life, his
death occurring there in August, 1909, he then being sixty-two years of
age. Albert L. HUNTER was an excellent farmer and did well at
his farming operations, developing a fine farm. He was
Republican and ever gave a good citizen's attention to local political
affairs, but had been a seeker after public office. He was a member of
the Mt. Tabor Methodist Episcopal church, as is his widow, and took a proper
part in all neighborhood good works.
In November, 1876, Albert L. HUNTER was united in marriage to Mary
Frances NORTH, who also was born in Salem township, on the old NORTH
homestead, a daughter of Abel and Elizabeth (HERR) NORTH, the
latter of whom is still living, now making her home at Kings Creek.
The late Abel NORTH and his wife were the parents of ten children, of
whom Mts. HUNTER was the first-born, the others being as
follow: Lucy, who married J.S. EWING and is now deceased;
Adelaide and Adrelina, twins, the former of whom married J.N. FIELDS
and is now living at Cleveland, and the latter of whom as burned to death
when twelve years of age; Sarah Elizabeth, who died at the age of seventeen
years; Charles L., who is now farming the old NORTH home place; Cora,
now deceased, who was the wife of Prof. John HAMILTON, superintendent
of the city schools at Cincinnati; William NORTH, a prominent
attorney at Cincinnati; Grant, who died in youth, and Birdie, wife of Prof.
D.C. BRYANT, principal of schools at Columbus.
To Albert L. and Mary Frances (NORTH) HUNTER, four children
were born, namely: Grace, who married Quinn M. YOCUM, a farmer,
of Salem township, and has two children, daughters, Helen M. and Margaret
E.; Edna, who married Alva KISER, of Troy, this state, and has
three children, Truman A., Paul and Mary V.; Fern P., born on November 22,
1882, who married the Rev. Milton S. SWISHER, a clergyman of the
Methodist Episcopal church, now living in Illinois, and died on November 13,
1905, leaving one child, a daughter, Dorothy, who is now making her home
with her grandmother, Mrs. HUNTER, and Sarah Elsa, who married Daniel
C. LEMON, a farmer, living in the neighborhood of St. Paris, in this
Co, and has two children, Mildred and Donald. Besides these
children, Mr. and Mrs. HUNTER have an adopted son, John HUNTER,
who is now farming the home place. Some time after the death of her
husband, Mrs.. HUNTER moved to Kings Creek where she is now living
and where she is very comfortably and very pleasantly situated.

Synopsis:
*Newton HUNTER enlisted as a recruit in Co. G., 66th Ohio Volunteer Infantry in the Civil war while the regiment was stationed at Bridgeport, Jackson Co, Alabama. By reason of disability was returned to Camp Dennison, Ohio, and from there to Camp Douglas, Chicago, where he was detailed as transportation clerk, remaining there until the close of the war.

Obituary. The Shreveport Times. 29 May 1915. MRS. W. RENDALL DIES SUDDENLY. FOUND DEAD BY HER HUSBAND HEART FAILURE OR CONGESTION PROBABLY CAUSE. The friends of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. R. RENDALL, 641 Stoner avenue were greatly shocked last night when the news was spread about the city that Mrs. RENDALL had been found lying across the bed in her room dead. Just when she died and what caused her death is not known. Mr. RENDALL, who is a traveling salesman for the Hicks company, went to his home about 6:45 yesterday evening and on entering his wife's bedroom found her lying across the bed. Calling to her several times and receiving no answer, he went to the bed, and placing his hands upon her he discovered that she was rigid in death. Hurrying down stairs, Mr. RENDALL called to his friend, John McW. FORD, who lives across the street, and with Mr. FORD returned to his home and to his wife's room, telling him that he had found his wife dead when he entered the room. Dr. McCRACKEN, who lives next door to the RENDALL home, was called, and with his wife hurried to Mrs. RENDALL's room, Mrs. M.A. VANCE, Mrs. FORD and other neighbors and Dr. T.F. LLOYDarriving a few minutes later. An examination by Drs. LLOYD and [McCRACKEN] determined that Mrs. [RENDALL] had been dead several hours, the cause of her death being either heart failure or congestion. According to friends of the family, she was to have attended a class meeting at the home of Mrs. Cooper NELSON at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and it is said that there were evidences that she had prepared to dress to go out, presumably to meet this engagement. Mrs. RENDALL was about 32 years old, a woman of marked beauty and genial disposition and had a large circle of friends. She was born in Hunter, and was married to Mr. RENDALL at Battle Creek, Mich., in 1903. Besides her husband, who is crushed by her sudden and unexpected death, she is survived by her grandmother and two aunts, one of whom resides at Waukegan, Ill., and the other at Milwaukee. It is said that Mrs. RENDALL was contemplating an early visit to her grandmother and aunt at Waukegan and was busy with preparations for the visit. No funeral arrangements will be made until her aunts are heard from, which will probably be some time today, messages having been sent them last night apprising them of the death of her niece. The news of her unexpected death was a great shock to the friends of the family, and Mr. RENDALL has the deepest sympathy of his friends in the loss he has sustained.

Synopsis:
*Sarah J. HUNTER came to Ohio when four years of age.
*After her marriage to Stephen WHITED, they lived near West Liberty, Champaign Co, OH until 1845. They concluded they could better themselves by selling their small farm in Ohio and go farther west and buy more land. Having some friends in Michigan they packed their household goods in two wagons and the family, with four to five horses and some cattle, moved overland to St. Joseph Co, Michigan; settled on one hundred and sixty acres of timberland where they established a good home. Here they lived and enjoyed the society of good christian people, and when life's duties were over were laid to rest in the Florence M.E. Church cemetery, which church they had worshiped in and helped to build.
May have m2. Stephen WHITAGE. There was a Stephen Whitage living next door to Nathaniel Hunter in the 1840 Census, Champaign Co, Salem Township, OH:
*Martha and Henry SEVISON lived and enjoyed life together nearly twenty years, when he was called to his heavenly home, at the age of seventy-nine years. He came to St. Joseph Co, Michigan, when a boy of eleven years, growing up with the new country, always taking an interest in all improvements for the betterment of society. Eight children, by a former marriage, and the widow, Martha WHITED SEVISON, were left to cherish the memory of a well-spent life. The widow now lives in Three Rivers, Michigan.
