Hiram Hunt (1789-ca 1855) didn't die in Randolph Coo.
It appears the subject Hiram Hunt did not die in Randolph Co. A just discovered 98 year old letter written by his daughter Surrelda C (Hunt) Main to her son Martin Dexter Main, in 1904, says in part:
"I want to quote a pashage of the bible that my Father wrote to his children when he was in the west he did not live to get home." Later she says "My Father wrote to his children over 50 years ago_I have the letter yet_see if you can keep this that long if you should live."
In less than two years this letter will be over 100 years old and now that we know we have it we will be able to care for it.
