Levi Alderman Hunt and Lucinda Elvira Paramore Hunt Family

Last night I got an e-mail from another descendant of my 3rd great grandparents, Levi Alderman Hunt and Lucinda Elvira Hyatt (Paramore) (Hunt). I started to gather together the few copies of Hunt family photos that I have to share with him, and I thought this would be a good opportunity to share them here too.

Phoebe Louisa Fellows (Hunt) (Hunt)
Levi Alderman Hunt’s parents were Levi Hunt and Jane Gadd. Levi and Jane had three sons when Jane died in 1863, when her son, Levi Alderman Hunt, would have been about two years old. Levi Hunt married Phoebe Louisa Fellows in 1863, and Levi and Phoebe raised Levi’s three sons, Phoebe’s two daughters from her previous marriage, and they also had eight more children together.

Mary Ellen Hunt (Sheppard), daughter of Levi Hunt and Phoebe Louisa Fellows (so Mary Ellen would have been Levi Alderman Hunt’s half sister).

Sisters, Sarah Susanna Hunt, Rosetta Hunt (Talbot) (Harmon), and Alice Melinda Hunt (Nay) – also daughters of Levi Hunt and Phoebe Louisa Fellows and half sisters of Levi Alderman Hunt. Consequently, Sarah Hunt married Alfred Gideon Chidester, the son of Joshua Parker Chidester and Juliett Burgess. Alfred Gideon Chidester’s eldest brother was John William Chidester, my second great grandfather on my father’s paternal side of the family.
