Did you ever find the information you were looking for?There is a possibility that I am related to Chief Cornlpanter through one of his daughters.The supposed link goes through a woman named Mary Elizabeth Hunt, a granddaughter of Cornplanter.The data I have says her father was Elijah Hunt who married Cornplanter's daughter during his life with the Seneca Indians (he was captured and adopted by one of the women there).She is documented to have died in 1804 and his daughter sent to Pensilvania.Mary Elizabeth Hunt was born in 1795 or so...she married William Dunlap and they moved to Orleans Co. NY.
I am trying to verify the above as fact or falsehood.
