William Hurt Sr "the immigrant" DOB 1625 in England may common ancestor for all American Hurt descendants.

Question

He is tagged as "the immigrant" because it is believed he was the first of the Hurt family to emigrate to America. You can search his children names & follow to modern times. He passed in the early 1700's in Virginia. It can be traced that his descendant spread from there into Kentucky, Tennessee,  Georgia & the Carolinas. My own paternal line has appeared in Virginia & the Carolinas. My paternal grandfather was Astor/Aster Hurt from the Richmond area.

Answer 1

My brother Steve's wife is a Hurt and the lines I've seen end with William "the elder" Hurt b 1680 VA. It'd probably be 2 generations (possibly 3) back to the William you're speaking of.  Is there a william you're aware of which would match?  I haven't gotten around to adding all of Steve's wife's line in yet but if there's a line that goes back further than I have, I might enter the rest of direct line in at least until it connects with what's already on WikiTree.

I see, looking at the Hurts here there are all of the necessary Hurts, but a couple of links don't exist.  I'll see if there is a surname group for the Hurts here or not.
