Notes for John HUNTER

Conflicting files suggest that John was married twice. First to unknown Hunter and had a Son named JAMES HUNTER. Other lists report that James was the son of MARY EARLY.
At this point I will leave Mary as the Mother of James until definite confirmation is available.

Also there are other Children suggested as siblings of John Hunter, but the dates are wrong. They say that ROBERT, BENJAMIN, ALEXANDER, ELIZABETH & JOHN are James's siblings. But their births are 1795 to 1804. These could have been the children of JAMES, not JOHN.
