John Hunt (Quaker exile) : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Hunt (Quaker exile)
John Hunt (1712 – March 31, 1778) was one of the ''Virginia Exiles'', a group of Philadelphia Quakers which was forcibly exiled to Winchester, Virginia, during the Revolutionary War.〔Gummere, p. 511〕 John Hunt was a merchant and Quaker minister from London, England.〔(Historical Society of Pennsylvania ) "Hunt, John. Letterbook, 1747-1749. John Hunt was a London merchant and shipper dealing tobacco and general merchandise. Continued as Hunt and Greenleafe."〕 Between 1738 and 1768, he made several voyages between London, Philadelphia and Virginia. In 1769, John Hunt, a widower, emigrated to the province of Pennsylvania with his three children: Dorothea, Elizabeth and John.〔Hinshaw, p. 560: Three certificates granted to John Hunt by London meetings were received by Philadelphia Monthly Meeting on July 4, 1764; April 29, 1768 and March 31, 1769.〕 The Hunt family settled near Philadelphia at Darby. John Hunt married Rachel Tory, a widow, on November 28, 1769. Some modern writers have confused the John Hunt (1712 – 1778), who is the subject of this article, with another Quaker named John Hunt (1711 – 1729) who also lived near Philadelphia at Moorestown, New Jersey.〔Hynes, p. 4〕 Adding to the confusion, another Quaker minister by the name of John Hunt (1740 – 1824) also lived at Moorestown.〔Gummere, p. 571〕 ==Notes==
