Pioneers of Marion County by Wm. Wm. M. Donnel, 1872

Daniel Hunt

Daniel Hunt was a native of New Jersey, from whence he first moved to Ohio, from thence to Iowa in '40, and to Swan in the autumn of '47, and made a claim where Asher Kise now lives. He sowed the first timothy in the township, in the spring following, one-half acre in all, and sold nine bushels of the yield in seed to James Thornburgh. Mr. Hunt is now a successful stock raiser.
