The Mayflower Society says unacceptable. "The claim may have been misinterpretation of Will of Samuel Hunt"
".....property to be partitioned among my heirs by son Samuel, by Hezekiah Bonham and by John Prince." No where does he call him son-in-law or is there any other documents to show this marriage.
i can not even find any proof that she was married to Hezekiah Bonham.. only that he was married to the two marys:: bishop and dunn

I apologize for how long it's taken to rectify this error.
I found the site http://web.pdx.edu/~davide/gene/Bonham_Hezekiah_2.htm particularly compelling to describe the wives & methodology of uncovering the correct genealogy.
So
- the 2nd wife was Mary Bonham and she may now have duplicate children to be merged together.
- Anna Hunt has been disconnected as the wife of Hezekiah Bonham, Sr.
Thank you for the patience, and the compiling of very nice resources.
thank you for your help Erica Howton.. I am only trying to help in ways I can when I find things that seem to mesh when looking up family members for myself and for those close to me..
keep finding some weird ones and asking questions about them in discussions.
tina quay - This is a great way to keep a record, asking the question in discussions. Thank you.
Even on families I work on a lot, after some time passes, even with Sources and a good About, I have to think again, so having the thought process and the conclusions in a discussion linked to the profile is wonderful.
