No relationship with the Hunter family of Nansemond, Virginia; professionally disproven. See "Hunter Family Research conducted for Still Hunter, Jr., of Birmingham, Alabama"

This seems unlikely to be applicable to this William Hunter, whose wife died in Wareham, Massachusetts.
There seems to have been a Hunter family in the town of Rochester in the Plymouth Colony, some distance from Sandwich on the outer Cape.
