The 1988 Monroe County, MS. History book, pages 553,554, and 555 has the Hill/Hunt family well published.
Which one of the 9 children of Benjamin A. b.1811 SC. and Elizabeth do you descend? Sorry, you stated it was Jasper Newton Hill who married first Zilla Bryant Howell, Andrews Hill. So, which of their 6 children do you descend? The first son, Robert married his cousin, Ruth Hunt.
The Howell family is deeply connected to the Hills. I found this out from the Howell History. My husband descends from the Howell and Jaudon family. Plus, I descend from Mansell Howell and Adline Smith Howell.Adline was my great great Aunt on the Smith side.
I am very interested in knowing if you have HUNT history?
Adline Smith Howell's sister, Sarah Smith married John H. Hunt.
Sarah Augusta Jaudon was on of three children of Paul Jaudon and Jane Hunt (brother Thomas Hunt). They died and left 3 minor daughters and Thomas was appointed guardian. The legal paperwork is located in the Chancery Court Building in Aberdeen, MS.
The three daughters were: Sarah Augusta, Eugenia Adelia, and Corsandra.
