Of the sons [of William Hunt], Nehemiah and Isaac resided in Concord, while Samuel, according to his deposition, removed to Ipswich about 1655. Nehemiah Hunt married 1 June 1663 Mary "Tooll" and their daughter Mary was born 28 Sept. 1664 [Concord B. M. and D., p. 13] Thomas Wood [son of Thomas and Ann of Rowley] married 26 June 1683 Mary Hunt [Rowley Vital Records, p. 431]. "Docr Simon Dauis and Mary Wood both of Concord was married by Justice minott October ye 19 day 1714" [Concord B. M. and D., p. 85]. The Hunt Genealogy states that Nehemiah Hunt' s daughter Mary married a Davis, not further identified, her married name having been found presumably in records of her father's estate. These records, considered together, indicate that Thomas Wood, Jr., of Rowley, married Mary Hunt, … daughter of Nehemiah and granddaughter of William Hunt, and that she subsequently married secondly, Dr. Simon Davis. Thomas Wood's uncle Obadiah lived in Ipswich, and Mary may have been visiting the family of her uncle Samuel Hunt in Ipswich when Thomas Wood met her. Of course the two families were connected following this marriage in 1683.
