Jonas Humphrey, aged 68 years or thereabouts, deposed that he lived for some time in Wendover, county of Bucks, and was well acquainted with Enoch Hunt of Titenden, parish of Lee, about two miles distant from Wendover, blacksmith, and with Ephraim Hunt, blacksmith, reputed eldest son of said Enoch Hunt, and that they afterwards removed into New England and for some time dwelt at Weymouth, and that said Enoch Hunt, the father, soon returned to England, but his son Ephraim Hunt remained at Weymouth, there married, had several sons, and continued his dwelling there to the time of his death, about sixteen months since, etc., 2 July, 1688.
