Cunningham: Harriet Cunningham married Zachariah Rhodes. Her sisters, Charlotte, Ann, Bathia, Betsy Ann and ???? all married men associated with ships [captains, carpenters, etc.] and her brother James was a mariner. The parents were reportedly James Cunningham Sr. and Pathiah/Bathiah Standiford. Beyond that little is known. James [Jr.? Sr.?] had a few adventures at sea, according to one of Harriet's grandsons. Almost anything on this family would be a help!
Mahurin: Hugh Mahurin arrived in Taunton, MA during the late 1680s. His homeland is in question. Family tradition holds that the family was either from Scotland or Northern Ireland. The family name was eventually shortened to Huron or Hurin.
