I am looking for the William Hunnicutt who emancipated slave Bob Jonathan.I have found a copy of the deed of emancipation but I don't know which Wm. Hunnicutt was the emancipator. Could some one help me find out please. The date of the deed is 1828.  Thanks.  The source is unknownnolonger.historical.org/search/results/deed-of-emancipation/1. I'm sorry I don't know how to make it a link. Also there is an image of the deed , I can't read it. Could some one tell me what it says. Thank you very much.
