JAMES SAMUEL HARRIS:
In 1870, he was living with his parents and siblings in Waynesville, Wayne County, Georgia. On 12/26/1878 he married Martha Hickox, b. 1864 Wayne County, Georgia, daughter of James Hickox and Nancy McClellan. In 1870 James and Martha were living with Martha's mother Nancy Hickox in Wayne County. Martha's father, John, apparently died between 1870 and 1880. In 1880 James, Martha and children were living in Wayne County. In 1900 James and the children were living in Hoboken, Pierce County. They lived in the Trail Ridge (Firetower Ridge) area between Nahunta and Hoboken. It appears that Martha had died between 1880 and 1900. James is not found in the 1910 or 1910 census, so he may have died between 1900 and 1910.1860 Wayne County , Georgia Census - July 23, 1860

Obituary: Pioneer Ship Captain Passes, The Tacoma News Tribune 17 December 1955 p.2
Capt. Lloyd B. Hunt, 80, who probably knew as much of the lore of the early days on Puget Sound as any living pioneer, died Thursday in a local hospital.
Born in Stanley, Neb., he and his twin brother came with their family to the Gig Harbor area in 1877. They spent their lives working on Puget Sound craft. The deceased was formerly an engineer on ferries operating from Point Defiance to Gig Harbor, and from Point Fosdick to Titlow Beach. Before that he had captained the SS Burro, Crest and Sentinel, Sound freight boats. Part of the time his brother, Floyd M. Hunt was captain and Lloyd was engineer of the same boat.
Surviving is his wife, Anna M., of the home at Star Route, Box 508, Gig Harbor; two sons Raymond H. and Lloyd B. Hunt Jr.; three daughters, Mrs. Hugo L. Finholm, Mrs. Frederick M. Babbitt and Mrs. Donald J. Edwards of Gig Harbor, and another daughter, Mrs. Russell Lieber of Bremerton; the brother Floyd M. Hunt of Fox Island, and nine grand children.
Private services will be held Monday at 10:30 a.m. at the Tuell Chapel, with the Rev. Fred McLauchlin officiating. Burial will follow in Artondale Cemetery. The family asks that flowers be omitted.

Anna Schulz met her future husband on the final leg of her family's long trip from Wisconsin to Wollochet Bay. Lloyd B. Hunt, son of Miles B. and Maritta Hunt was an engineer on the steamer, Victor, that brought her from Tacoma. Anna's parents, George and Elizabeth Schulz, had purchased James Moore's homestead land on the west side of the bay and came out to farm it in 1889. The farm supported the usual chickens, cows, and horses, and produced loganberries and raspberries, but George found it practical to work out for cash as well. He and sons Edward and George soon were employed at Gig Harbor's first lumber mill, located near today's Jerisich Park. Later, Schulz traveled to Carbonado to mine coal during the week, coming home on weekends.The Schulz's baggage had included a cornet, violins and a bass viola for the trip to a new life. He and his four sons, with daughter Emma playing piano, provided music for dances held in Gig Harbor's GAR hall, in the Booster School at Pardy.

"Old Town" by Gladys Para, no date and no publication information. Gladys belongs to the Peninsula Historical Society.When fishermen and farmers each lived off both land and sea, before the automobile became common on the dirt roads of the Gig Harbor Peninsula, Sunday was a day of the sort of rest that comes from a change in activity. When the church service was over, fishermen gardened and farmers took a boat out to fish for food.
One summer Sunday in 1909, or perhaps it was 1910, the Lloyd Hunt family did what they often looked forward to during the week: father Lloyd, the engineer on the Crest, went out looking for a salmon while mother Anna took their children to visit her folks, George and Elizabeth Schulz.
The women of the time were usually capable of hitching and driving a horse and buggy. It was as necessary a skill as cooking. Whether Anna and the children drove or walked from their home on Pioneer Way, they went to her parents' farm on Sundays. It was 20 acres of meadow and orchard in a hidden valley near the head of Wollochet Bay, a valley that is still untouched by suburbia today.
There they visited, worked and played together, anticipating the big supper they would prepare if Grandpa and Dad brought home the fish they had gone after.
[Anna] had come with her folks from Wisconsin, but her sister Marjorie and brother Paul were born here, after the Schulzes bought their acreage from Jimmy Moore in 1889. The two youngest attended the little red schoolhouse build in Sullivan's Gulch on the east side of the head of Wollochet Bay.
[Anna and Lloyd Hunt] lived nearer the shore of Gig Harbor than [George and Elizabeth Schulz]. Consequently, Anna and Lloyd's children attended the Lincoln School. Lloyd's father, Miles B. Hunt, had arrived to the Wollochet/Artondale region by 1876, so early a settler he had had to cut roads through the trees to get where he needed to go.
Charlie Kimball did a lot of the clearing necessary for settlers to get in and out of their places. The demand for fuel for the steam-powered boats whose homeports were the local docks guaranteed the market for the small logger. Broad, tall stumps, notched for the springboards that supported the men who cut them, still dot the open spaces of the old farm. The shaft of light showing behind Marjorie Schulz and Raymond Hunt in the above photo may be the result of Charlie's constant work, or it may indicate an open edge of town, spreading only as clearings were felled.
EARLY DAYS OF SCHULZ AND HUNT FAMILIES RECALLED, ALONG WITH BASEBALL PLAYED ON PRESENT SITE OF THE GATEWAY
The Peninsula Gateway, Wednesday 26, 1986 by Gladys Para, Gateway staffAnna Schulz met her future husband on the final leg of her family's long trip from Wisconsin to Wollochet Bay. Lloyd B Hunt, son of Miles B. and Maritta Hunt, was engineer on the steamer Victor that brought her from Tacoma.
Anna's parents, George and Elizabeth Schulz, had purchased half of James Moore's homestead land on the west side of the bay and came out to farm it in 1889. The farm supported the usual chickens, cows, and horses, and produced loganberries and raspberries, but George found it practical to work out for cash as well. He and sons Edward and George soon were employed at Gig Harbor's first lumber mill, located near today's Jerisich Park. Later, Schulz traveled to Carbonado to mine coal during the week, coming home on weekends.
The Schulz's baggage had included a cornet, violins and a bass viola for the trip to a new life. He and his four sons, with daughter Emma playing piano, provided music for dances held in Gig Harbor's GAR hall, in the booster School, and at Purdy.
Anna was the one of eight Schulz to stay home on the farm to help with the work and the two youngest children. Because the Hunt boats provided the major transportation for the new settlers, she and Lloyd saw each other often, and decided on marriage in 1902.
Their second home together was the house build for them by George Iliff on Pioneer Way in 1909, where they lived eight years before moving to the head of the bay and closer to Lloyd's work. As engineer of the side-wheeler steamboat City of Tacoma, he was responsible for obtaining and loading wood for its boilers each night, and for doing his own repairs while it lay at the dock.
The couple's four daughters were all born in their home on Pioneer Way while a family friend, Mrs. Wagner assisted. One of the girls, Henrietta (Mrs. Frederick) Babbitt, recalls that as they all grew up they played a lot of baseball on the empty lot across the street, now The Peninsula Gateway site. The Kimball boys from the top of the hill, she says, and the Cruvers, would come down to play ball in the summer and sled down the steep road in the winter.
"Nobody worked on the roads," Mrs. Babbitt remembers. "The road past our house was all ditches and ruts. Grandpa Hunt always just walked up the hill when he went to visit friends, and never bothered with the horses."
The children of Anna and Lloyd Hunt were seven in number all graduates of Union High School. Of them, Raymond Henrietta and Gladys (Mrs. Donald Edwards) live in Gig Harbor. Anita (Mrs. Russell Seiber) and her husband plan to relocate soon to Gig Harbor from Chico, Washington. Those no longer living are Miles, Lloyd, Jr., and Myrtle (Mrs. Hugo Finholm) of Gig Harbor.
Caption under picture:The home of Lloyd B. and Anna Schulz Hunt looked like this when build in 1909 for them by George Iliff. It remains much the same, at 7516 Pioneer Way, having been remodeled only slightly. The house was built with two bedrooms, separate kitchen and dining room, a living room and a bathroom on the ground floor. Running water was piped, by gravity flow, from an artesian well on the property. Anna was a charter member of the local Amateur Garden Club. The roses she was fond of covered an arbor between the front door and the road, and a few of the lilacs she planted still bloom each spring. With Anna on the front porch are sons Miles, left, and Raymond, right. The inset photo is Anna Schulz Hunt, when she was guest of honor on her 90th birthday celebration held May 12, 1973 at Cottesmore Nursing Home. Photo courtesy of Henrietta Hunt Babbitt.
