1. Bartholomew1 Hunt (129) married Ann (--?--) (130). He died in 1687 at Newport, Rhode Island. His estate was probated on 16 Jun 1687.
From Mitchell Hunt The Early Hunt Families of Vermont: Bartholomew Hunt, 1640 in Dover, NH, and by 1644 in Newport, RI. A Bartholomew Hunt is found on lists of the early settlers of Dover, NH, in 1640 (Noyes, Libby, Davis, Gen. Dict. of ME & NH, p.363) who is believed to be the same who appears in Newport, RI, by 1644. According to the story on Enoch Hunt of Weymouth, separately recorded on this website, Bartholomew was a younger brother of Enoch, but from his dates, marriage, children, and death, it would appear more likely that he was a son of Enoch as was the contemporary Peter Hunt of Rehoboth, MA (see separate record of descendants of Enoch on this website). His Will of 11 Feb 1687 gives his wife's name as Ann, and from his Will and other records he had eight children: Bartholomew, b. 7 Dec 1654; Adam, b. Sept 1656 and died young; Naomi, b. 15 Sept 1658; Ezekiel, b. 8 March 1663; John; three daughters, names not known.
