JAMES HUNTER son of Robert and Agnes (Smith) Hunter [SIC: see Burke's reference below] was born in 1689 in Dogland Argyll Scotland. He immigrated to America before 1710 and was in Boston in 1710 when he married Mary Campbell. Mary was born in 1686 in Campbellstown Scotland. The daughter of William and Margaret (McLean) Campbell. James and his sons Adam, Isaac and John obtained settlers lots in Topsham from the Pejepscot Company in Boston in 1714. In 1722 the 4th French and Indian War or Lovewell’s war started and most families abandoned their homes for for the safety of larger settlements. It is likely the Hunter women and children returned to Boston. 9 men including James, Isaac and John Hunter remained in Topsham in one or more of the garrision houses, to try and protect their property.
